Jeff,
Yeah I cannot imagine why you would NOT want a feed override or a
spindle override slider. I use mine all the time to either carefully run
thru a program at slower speed, check the approach of a toolpath to the
workpiece, or just to optimize a feed or speed that has already been
programmed to get a better finish etc. etc.
I think on some level much of this trepidation comes from worrying
about inexperienced users crashing due to these features. I completely
understand their concerns but perhaps some of these more advanced features
could be added yet disabled in the software if you want so you can let new
users run more safe settings. The reality is that many people like us are
trying to run commercial machines with LinuxCNC and are looking for MORE
features not less. I realize that the software is free and dependent upon
programmer types to work on it at their will and leisure. I wish I knew how
to do it or I would attempt it myself. I am NOT a programmer type as anyone
who knows me can attest LOL. Unfortunately. Peace
Pete
