G-code EDITOR:

In the search and replace feature, allow multi line replacements for single line finds. Example can be found in Notepad++

A slash and single character represent standard editing control codes like carriage return and newline. ex. '/n' is newline

example: FIND: 'G1 Z0'
              REPLACE: 'G0Z.050 /n G1Z0F1 /n F30'


Each instance of 'G0 Z0' would be replaced by three lines of G-code,

matrix:


Tool Path,

Clicking with the mouse anywhere on Toolpath window and the machine move for that point.

Clicking on a line on Toolpath window (GCODE FILE) and the machine moves to the precise coordinate of the, X/Y/A/B/C.

Thanks

matrix:

Still in toolpath,



Camera interface (webcam or other)  for the Toolpath window, Direct view of the table x / y appropriately scaled.

Select the lines of work and drag to move the job to another coordinate, Very useful in combination with the camera.


Thanks

Protected Move mode to protect the probe. (vital)

Reverse mode G31 where the it probes into a part then stops and reverses back out to the switch remake then stop and record positions. This speed up some routines as you do not have to back off the switch to be able to probe in another direction.

Probe tip compensation so that the positional values are accurate to the tip used. (very handy,vital). Do it as a tool table entry to define tip radius AND switch travel.

Built in Probe calibration routine based on the ball and bar routine(vital)

Torque limited move mode to protect the machine. (nice to have)

Full Function G12/13 mode. (HAAS style, Nice to have, not vital)

Control  page showing ALL the System # vars values  accessable from Gcode (VITAL)

Gcode window to dispaly Gcode #var as VALUES on the fly. ( Very Nice to have)
