Re: KMotionCNC fails to launch unless freshly installed

No problem with KMotion.exe.
Clicking the G Viewer button in KMotionCNC also caused KMotionCNC to crash (with same result in Event Viewer XML).
I'll try watching it in VS Code.

KMotionCNC fails to launch unless freshly installed

Recently (after a Win11 update this week) I've been occasionally unable to launch KMotionCNC, unless I uninstall and re-install (435f). I couldn't find any mention of "atioglxx.dll" in this forum. I suspect it's something Uncle Bill (MS Update) did to my machine (Speccy summary below) but thought I'...

Re: Launch KMotionCNC.exe and KMotionServer.exe with Above normal Base priority

Thank you for such quick reply! The PC is 12 years old (Lenovo M90P 5536A1U ThinkCentre). It doesn't score very high; https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/51343260 More stats; Intel Core i5 650 @ 3.20GHz, Clarkdale 32nm Technology 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz I write GCode by hand (mostly 2.5D...

Launch KMotionCNC.exe and KMotionServer.exe with Above normal Base priority

Getting lots of "Unexpected Coordinated Motion Buffer Underflow!" modal dialog boxes, with the associated interruption of G Code execution. Pressing OK never restarts motion. Is there a way to automatically launch both KMotionCNC.exe and KMotionServer.exe with Above normal Base priority? I've looked...

Non-blocking check of OriginOffsets and AxisOffsets

Tom, Two years ago you provided code for non-blocking service of a G43 G49 status LED, which worked great for me (thanks!); https://www.cnczone.com/forums/dynomotion-kflop-kanalog/369300-g43-g49-status-led-toggle-post2231526.html#post2231526 #include "KMotionDef.h" #define TMP 10 // which spare pers...

Re: Bit Driven Button Highlight

Thanks for the quick reply. I was using your color fields incorrectly. Here is how I think they work for a Style=ToggleButton button; First column of color fields is for the text color (top when bit=0, bottom when bit=1), Second column of fields is for the fill color. Screen Editor Text and Fill.png...

Bit Driven Button Highlight

Trying to change a button's color ("Highlight") based on Virtual Bit 55. This button will eventually run a KMotion C program (Initialize file - Script not set up yet in attached pictures - forever loop sets Bit55 after initializing, clears same if need to re-initialize occurs). The button's "Highlig...

Type GROUPBOX

How do I create a new group box (similar to the "units" caption, with a light outline around the radio buttons mm and inch, in the "Resizeable 3 Axes" screen)? In KMotionCNC Screen Editor | Control Select, I tried selecting the only group box I saw. I was in the Tool Setup | Tool/Setup Files | Main ...

Does KMotionCNC with a KFLOP & PMDX need SIMESTOPBIT?

On line 216 of <>\C Programs\Mach3_CL_PMDX.c, an accommodation for Mach3 is explained (I've elaborated); Because of the way the PMDX-131 board works (Manual mode forces EStop also), we need to simulate a new EStop ("SIMESTOPBIT") that is only active when NOT in Manual mode. Manual mode allows the op...
