GSender jogging bug holding the key down

So today i found out why it jogs without moving the machine.
if i have rapid selected and on the X Y selected 20mm/min when i tap the keyboard it moves 20mm, but if i hold the key the sofware bugs out, it keeps jogging but the machine doesn’t, and only moves just ever so slightly when the softare stops jogging. I took a look at what happens in the console and when i keep the key down the XY feed gets multiplied and turn into 200000 see below image
if i set the in the setting default speed move /mm to 5 it’s fine and the rapid moves as expected when holding the key.
btw, i can’t do anyting untill the sofware gets out of that state, reseting it, closing the softare ar anything
is there a way to have 20 selected without having the sofware bug out?

@iuliancalin I’m not sure I exactly understand the steps you’re taking to make this happen, but of course in gSender clicking-and-holding the jog key will make you move for a further distance. In recent versions as well we introduced a setting in Config called ‘Continuous jog delay’ to increase the delay to activate the longer jogging for people who prefer it.

Have you felt with these updates it’s been behaving more like how you’d expect?

i found the problem it was the -200.000 value on X and Y, i had it changed to a smaller value an it didn’t do it, now with 1.5.x you guys made it a more sane value and it doesn’t do that anymore , so i guess it its fixed
as you can see in my image i have 20mm set for one time jog, but holding will have translated that to the insane value
i believe that made GSender freak out thinking i was about to hit the machine limit hard
