Screen Load Script
« on: December 14, 2023, 09:52:53 PM »
Apologize for the basic questions but where are the functions that are in the screen load script stored?  I am not sure how to add or modify functions that are in there.  Bonus if you can point me to a resource where I can learn more.  The documentation for LUA programming in the Mach4 manuals didn’t quite work for me.

Go to 'operator->edit screen' then in the screen tree manager panel click on the top most entry(screen name), then in the properties panel click on the second icon which shows a list of scripts, click on the Screen Load Script.

I got that far but you cannot modify and save anything here.  Or at least I couldn’t.

Did you click on the three ellipses in the second column?  That brings up the editable script.

I am not a programmer and had problems starting also.
I made this and it might help you also.
