[10:00:19] <hazzy-m> morning
[10:09:02] <JT-Shop> morning
[11:17:18] <Roguish> hazzy-m: good morning.
[11:29:36] <Roguish_desk> in ProbeBasic, is there a way to tell if an axis is homed?
[11:30:29] <Roguish_desk> and what is the difference between the axis letter button, and the axis 'ref' button ?
[11:37:03] <hazzy-m> Roguish_desk: Good questions :)
[11:37:15] <hazzy-m> The ref button homes the axis
[11:37:38] <hazzy-m> I think it should have an LED to indicate the home status
[11:37:45] <Roguish_desk> hey, how do I start the 'designer' to look at the Probebasic
[11:37:52] <Roguish_desk> design
[11:38:21] <hazzy-m> from the top level qtpyvcp directory run
[11:38:33] <hazzy-m> ./launch_designer.sh
[11:39:18] <Roguish_desk> when I do that it opens demo mini.
[11:39:22] <Roguish_desk> what then?
[11:40:03] <hazzy-m> you can close it and then use the file >> open to open examples/probe_basic.ui
[11:40:25] <hazzy-m> you can also pass the file path to the launch_designer.sh script
[11:40:42] <hazzy-m> run ./launch_designer.sh -h abd it should show you how
[11:41:06] <Roguish_desk> just found that. got error: The enumeration-type property reference_type could not be read.
[11:42:14] <Roguish_desk> ok, lots of clicks to clear the error. seemed like there were several per axis.
[11:43:55] <hazzy-m> oh
[11:44:13] <hazzy-m> do you have LCNC 2.8 installed?
[11:45:44] <Roguish_desk> totally, updated as of yesterday
[11:47:19] <hazzy-m> are you running from a RIP, or system wide?
[11:49:15] <Roguish_desk> well, back to the homing topic. pretty handy to know when an axis has been homed.
[11:49:18] <Roguish_desk> system
[12:03:17] <Roguish_desk> can ya change a button style sheet based on a signal or something? and is there a signal or something for 'axis is homed'?
[12:07:09] <Roguish_desk> think you need to add an 'axis is homed' status in the home actions section in the machine_actions.py
[12:08:11] <Roguish_desk> just a suggestion.... I'd try, but not a coder at all.
[12:18:59] <hazzy-m> Roguish_desk: You could use the rules editor to change the button stylesheet based on the homed status
[12:19:48] <hazzy-m> the data channel would be something like `status.homed[axis_num]`
[12:20:26] <hazzy-m> I'll add rules settable style sheet property to the action button
[12:21:05] <hazzy-m> getting ready for the wedding rehearsal in a few minutes
[12:21:17] <hazzy-m> ttyl
[12:21:35] <Roguish_desk> jeeze. don't worry about it now.
[13:25:52] <Lcvette> happy rehearsal dinner!
[13:26:03] <Lcvette> ps the Rhino Lives!!

[15:52:07] <Roguish> hazzy-m: pretty much every thing like 'home' should have some sort of confirmation. like the job increment buttons. when selected, change color or something....

[18:47:55] <Lcvette> confirmation for home is the dro's go to zeros
[19:16:55] <hazzy-m> Lcvette: In hazzy the DRO numbers were red if the axis was not hommed
