I am not sure which program you are referring to now. I am referring to qtvcp's cam_align - I just fixed it - as soon as I realized it was broken.
cam-view was never officially supported - I am surprised it still worked at all. ________________________________ From: gene heskett <ghesk...@shentel.net> Sent: August 20, 2022 7:21 PM To: emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net <emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [Emc-developers] looks like I need a python3 patch On 8/20/22 15:05, Chris Morley wrote: > Gene > > I looked at the errors and found the problem in the code. > Thanks for posting the error messages. > I guess I broke it a month ago or so. > I have pushed a fix to master. > Sorry about that. > > Chris I appreciate the effort Chris, but historically its been work for a week, fail for a year. Am I the only one who wants to use a camera for an edge finder? Or to align the machine to a part? Somewhat difficult since the post on my go704 is leaning like the tower of Pisa. I bought a circular square and will see if that will help me fix it. But I keep miss-laying my round tuit. I'll update around the evening and see if it works then, and advise. Thanks a bunch. > ________________________________ > From: gene heskett <ghesk...@shentel.net> > Sent: August 16, 2022 1:44 PM > To: emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net > <emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net> > Subject: Re: [Emc-developers] looks like I need a python3 patch > > On 8/15/22 23:22, gene heskett wrote: > update, see below. >> On 8/15/22 21:56, Chris Morley wrote: >>> Gene.
