@KGN Kevin: Attached is the screencap of the bindings. Iāve attached the gsender-0.5.6.json file to show that it shows that the binding for Y- is the ā-ā key. I renamed the .json to .nc so that could attach it.
In addition to the jogging issue, the = key no longer works for starting a job. It did in previous versions.
Thanks for this - weāve figured out what went wrong. Some changes we made to keybindings resulted in keybindings getting set twice (if you scroll down your list youāll probably see everything duplicated).
Weāre going to look at a way to gracefully fix this in a build later this week. In the meantime, you have a few options depending on how comfortable you are editing the settings files:
You can reset your entire keybindings by deleting the .json file - this will also reset all your other program settings.
You can edit the file and remove the ācommandKeysā key from the end of the file - this will only reset your keybindings back to default but will keep all your other settings. The key will be regenerated the next time you start the program. Youāll need to re-bind all your changes. You can use any basic text editor such as notepad.
Disable duplicate keybindings using the UI - Toggling conflicts worked for me. For example, toggling off the duplicate āIncrease jog Speedā set to default ā=ā made play shortcut work again using your settings.
Edit the file and remove the duplicate entries - probably a little tedious. The latter entries will be the redundant ones in the array, the earlier ones are the original.
Again, weāre going to make a fix that will hopefully fix this later this week - the above is only if you desperately want keybindings working now.
Thatās a slightly different issue where new macros donāt appear as possible keybinds. Weāll have a fix for that this week as well. Removing all keybinds will fix that (it will re-generate the macros list) but at the cost of also removing all your other custom binds. It might be best to wait for a fix for that specific issue.
@KGN FWIW, for fun, I just opened the key mapping window. I removed the key maps for all the jog motions. There were two sets of them. Then, I added new maps for the jog motions BUT they had to be added in the section labelled ājoggingā. Adding them to the overrides or the visualizer section did not work. Now, all my usual maps work.
@falviani Frank: I was able to map the macros that I have created. They were all included in the key map chart/window, but were all turned off. I turned them on with the slider on the right hand side of the window, then added new maps. They all worked.
@falviani@KGN FWIW, Frank and Kevin, I can duplicate the problem. When I first installed 6.7, I had 8 macros already created. They are listed in the macros tab. When I open the key map window, I can see all 8 of them and can assign them to shortcut keys. Just now, I created a new macro. It is included in the list in the macros tab. It is NOT shown in the key map menu. I closed and re-started 6.7. No change. I re-started the PC. I didnāt expect that to solve this, but what the heck. It did not solve it.
@Menglor You could well be correct, Stephen, that uninstalling 6.7 and re-installing it would solve the problem. However, I canāt see the permanent solution requiring an uninstall and re-install each time a new macro is created. Iām sure you donāt, either.
The team and I are feeling good that weāve solved all of the recent problems that have cropped up, including:
new macros appearing for shortcut assignment
shortcuts not working properly
keyboard jogging running away
handling M0 commands (should avoid issues with programs like Carbide Create)
File load button sometimes not working
The last fix weāre not completely confident on though so we have an experimental build that we could use help testing (for anyone whoās experienced this issue previously):
This patch build should be ready by tomorrow for use and will also include a couple smaller tweaks that weāre hoping helps timeout on larger files.
Most builds up to this point have been relatively stable but we just dropped the ball a bit on this most recent one. Weāve removed auto-updating so that from here on out youāll have the choice to install the latest version at your own discretion. I know that gSender is still in Beta so to a certain extent these issues are to be expected, but we also hope that you guys havenāt lost the trust in our work as we continue development moving forward. Weāre fast approaching Version 1.0 which will mark the completion of Beta and will mean that gSenderās core functionalities will be very stable from build to build.
My suggestions for falviani are not a suggested fix , the recommendation was to get him up and running.
No one should be expected to upgrade beta to beta.
I know for sure from version to version , the files in the appdata are not cleaned up , so itās hard to trust any reporting of a problem, when you know you have multiple versions over versions.
Some of my concerns as reported on feedback. Anybody else experience these?
First run with this version:
While running 02 file, progress bar stops at 5213 of 147685 lines. test same files takes hours and must close the pgm to restart use of it. Pressed pause to result no āresumeā tab. Press STOP and no response also. Need to close the pgm to start over.
Performing a Test run is now seemingly very slow compared to earlier versions
Surfacing does not offer RASTER option.
I would like to have this choice.
Also does not offer X Y start position choice. I like bottom left. Kind of messy if not paying attention⦠not showing well the start position very well. I would like to have this (visible at least) choice to avoid disasters.
Firstā¦I love where this is going! Nice work. Some nice additions to CNCjs.
I donāt know if this is better to post here or on GitHub:
Running gSender v0.6.8 on Windows 10.
Can I disable the obnoxious homing reminders? My machine has homing switches, but sometimes I just want to unlock($X) to do something.
I canāt see the machine state anywhere (Idle, Hold, Door, Check, etc). It looks like the āRun Homingā box changes color on state changesā¦maybe that shows text if I actually home? (sorry, playing with a Uno right now).
If I am in $C check mode, and I click āTest Runā, Check Mode is disabled and the program is run live.
Iām going to start closing these old release threads since as soon as a new version is released any comments or issues can be directed to the most recent release feedback thread.
