Thats done, and since it seems like a handy this to see w/o firing up a halmeter, I thought I'd add it to the pyvcp stuff for 2 labels and 2 numbers. But a straight copy/paste from <vbox> to </vbox> that contains the jogging helpers gfx winds up putting it to the right of the existing jog helpers gui, making the axis screens frame much wider. xml doesn't come with docs, so where can I find a better explanation of how this xml/pyvcp stuff actually works? Whats in the current Documentation.pdf leaves out the real docs. It gives code, and shows what that code does, but seems to gloss over the <hbox> and <vbox> stuff and the effects they give. And I've not found my small roll of that damaged cable on the mill yet. I'm sure I have some yet. And my oldest son, who is working for one of the companies that go around to storm damaged areas putting the electric power back together, is going to be about 40 miles away working in Elkins WV this afternoon, still several thou out of power since yesterdays "little pop-up thunderstorm". We've not seen each other face to face for about 3 years, which was at another of my boys funerals. Not a good time to visit. So I'll be "out of pocket" later. -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
