Problem ONE) When I click on GoTo Zero Y, it goes there, but also to Z-5. I see the following in the console: feeder G91 feeder G0 Z5 feeder G90 feeder G0 Y0 feeder G0 Z-5 Problem Two) I have jobs that require a tool change with a line like: M0 ;T202 gSender stops as desired, but since I am doing a tool change, I need to Probe Z again, but it is disabled. As a result I have to split the file into separate jobs. ---

I’d rarely use buttons, but I don’t like the idea of moving an axis I didn’t tell it to move. What if my homing pulloff is set to 1mm or 3mm or what if I am in G20 (not sure if there was anything before that log in the console)? EDIT: I don’t see this behavior in gSender (0.7.5). @saskia I just see the `G90` followed by the `G0 Y0` ---

gSender 0.75: ONE) GoToY0 destroyed a number of my tiny drills by plunging them down into the touch plate which now has little craters at the impact points. Its just a useful shortcut for using the console, which does work correctly. TWO) The problem is that I cannot Re-zero Z for a new tool I insert during a stop in a job, unless I split the gCode into separate files; a minor annoyance. I don’t think the post-processor has much to do with this functionality. THREE) MacOS complains that gSender is not from an identified developer so I have to do a security override ---

I edited a small Gcode file to try out M6 and M06, and neither give me the dialog about tool change that you show. Just a complaint about it not being supported. Can you post a wee bit of your code that I could try? Is this a firmware issue for the LongMill? ---

That fixed it, settings got unexpectedly reverted to default while trying other stuff. THANKS! I made a bash script to process the Carbide Create files to create a list of tools and to substitute M6 for M0 if there is a T command on the same line as M0. A better error message could be helpful, saying ignored or whatever instead of “not supported”. Another helpful detail might be if the dialog could include any T command text on the same line as M6 to indicate which tool is expected after the change. ---

Hello! When using the GSender “Quick Movement buttons”, it does not seem to move all the way. > My current Firmware Settings: > $130=740 (X Soft Travel) > $131=325 (Y Soft Travel) After Homing, the “Quick Movement buttons” will move properly: - but the X will only reach 712. When i continue to Jog manually, i am able to reach 739 (when i get the “Travel Exceeded” in the Console) - but the Y will only reach 310.5. When i continue to Jog manually, i am able to reach 325 (when i get the “Travel Exceeded” in the Console) Any Ideas? ---

I’m telling you…just use the Shapeoko Post processor. It’ll do that for you, so you don’t have to post process the post processed. ---

Nice. I see LongMill machine zero is defined at the position at power-up which is ok for tool change: (Move to safe Z to avoid workholding) G53G0Z-5.000 BTW - A little script translates from Excellon 2 drill format to Gcode for PCB drilling for me. I will make more for special purposes. Gcode is easy to deal with in bash. ---

Quick movement buttons don’t go all the way to the edge - it’s designed to get “most of the way there” as a convenience movement, but not all the way to avoid running into the machine edge. It should be travelling 90% of the dimensions configured in preferences for your selected machine profile. ---

@falviani I was wondering what the status was of your issues using gSender with your ‘touch portal’ application that you mentioned back in 0.7.1 > [@Official 0.7.1 Release Thread: Bug fixes and more reliability!](https://forum.sienci.com/t/official-0-7-1-release-thread-bug-fixes-and-more-reliability/3462/13): > > Actually, I’ve broken 2 2mm end mills in the last 2 days when the “precise” Z- jog suddenly moved roughly 10mm down hard into the stock. I consider fixing this thoroughly and quickly a very high priority. Not being able to rely on the jogging is a killer. I’ve been doing the jogging by clicking directly on the UI. I have an application called ‘touch portal’ that can send key stroke sequences to gSender, but it gets less reliable with each revision to gSender.
