mc.mcToolPathGetBackColor() has a bad binding.  Thanks for finding that Scott!  It will be in the next update.

Hey Steve,

I suspect if there was a bad binding in ONE color func, the others may also be buggy...

Did manage to get persistent DRO's to work but it took a lot of coding, hopefully next revision will resolve this issue. My plan this week is to cut some parts with Darwin.
Now write and read variables to the machine.ini file. Write by button, Read by the Load Script

Cool stuff !
I also found an early need for the .set name. Had several different screens for different experimental purposes and wanted to know which was loaded as some were very similar.
Mine was not so elegant ... just plopped a dummy button in the corner with a label depicting the screen name. ::)

Craig, I hope you have your screen ready for sale bout the time 4 is released. :)
It must be pretty impressive by now.

Thanks,
Russ

No Terry few years before that, just when I happened to hit the button good guess thou.

Russ, Ya-Nvr-No I might be ready before them.  ;)

how to get the Screen name (placed in the the PLC script)
you do have to create the text and label on the screen page and give them the correct name.

    ScrName = mc.mcProfileGetString(inst,'Preferences','Screen',ScreenName);  --Screenset name
    scr.SetProperty('lblScreenName', 'Label', ScrName);
