Hello at all,

Thanks for sharing this great UI.

It's looking much better than the 1024 UI.

Question:
You spend so much time in building good looking Backgroud-Pictures.
But: How do I have to set up MACH3 that the Background-Picture is displayed without scaling?
I always get some bad looking . (I think it is form scaling the Background***.png Pictures)

Hi Kissling,

Sorry, I'm no longer working on that project. However, I will tell you that I had to rescale the backgrounds using Photoshop to natively fit my relatively low resolution Lenovo all-in-one PC on my mill. I used a combination of Photoshop, Illustrator and Machscreen to design/create/modify all of the other graphics in the UI.

I would try adjusting the UI in Machscreen since you can adjust the placement of the graphics/buttons/LEDs/DROs if necessary.

I hope that helps.

Good luck!

Hello Dotyman, I really like your interface, but the "SHORTCUTS" don't work, right? I'm trying to load a new G-Code with "CTRL + L" and it doesn't work...

Greetings.

Hi JoeBar,

Shortcuts should work, just make sure you're on the appropriate screen/page. I just checked and the CTRL +L works to load a G-code file on my PC as long as I'm on the PROGRAM page in Mach.

Hope that helps!

Hi Ian,

Make sure you have all of the graphics files stored in the C:Mach3\Bitmaps\DarkScreenBitmaps folder.
