If by running from a cd to that directory, which is in the /home/gene/linuxcnc directory (and I did not remove the -master from the pathname), then yes, doing a "./features.py --catalog=mill". appears to work as intended although I haven't attempted to actually design something yet. > > where have you placed linuxcnc-features ? /home/gene/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-features-master Path, in the .ini is: [DISPLAY] GLADEVCP = -U --catalog=mill features.ui FEATURE_PATH = /home/gene/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-features-master # Name of display program, e.g., xemc DISPLAY = axis And I might have found it, that is supposed to be FEATURES_PATH above. Missing an S Unfortunately, that did not fix it. What I am looking at in the terminal screen exactly matches what I posted below. So I moved those 2 added lines to below the DISPLAY = axis in case it was order sensitive, which appears to be a no. Same error. I've now checked the created links several time, all are there and good. In /usr/share/pyshared/gladevcp, an "ls -l features*" shows gene@coyote:/usr/share/pyshared/gladevcp$ ls -l features* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 59 Jan 4 10:51 features.glade -> /home/gene/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-features-master/features.glade lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 56 Jan 4 10:51 features.py -> /home/gene/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-features-master/features.py And in /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/gladevcp: root@coyote:/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/gladevcp# ls -l features* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 59 Jan 4 13:30 features.glade -> /home/gene/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-features-master/features.glade lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 56 Jan 4 13:30 features.py -> /home/gene/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-features-master/features.py > did you run the setup? Setup? Other than the above check to see if the download and unpacking was ok, no. Its not mentioned in README.md. > One thing I note is that when running standalone, from that directory, the README.md text says a mill is the default, but its presenting me with lathe options. I can run it with no catalog argument, or with --catalog=lathe and get the same display. To get the mill menu, I have to add a --catalog=mill to the invocation. Still stumped.
