Sorry for bothering, but it
Basically there are a dozen lines that do magic then you just add a
define for each signal you create in the Gtk Interface Designer to do
the function you want.
The most confusing thing for me is there is so many ways to get to the
end you can get lost along the way...

Hey Viesturs,
I have successfully done this twice, its fairly simple. I would be more
than happy to help you through it. Including a homing process. I would
suggest only using glade for the User Interface, not to handle any time
based commands. Found this out very quickly. Its really easy to

So yes it is running stand alone with all of LinuxCNC available to my
GUI via the python interface.

I've only been able to figure out how to run my GUI with halrun from a
terminal which is not very elegant as you have to type in exit or quit
to unload the real time environment unless you know the secret to halrun
closing when the GUI closes?

Stepgen has a "counts" output. You need to store that value somewhere
in HAL at the point when the home switch is tripped.
(alternatively, store the position-fb value).
That value is your "ho

Yes, I have played a little with Glade. It is really nice, but there

I am fairly sure that the answer is "No".
The answer is probably to have the stepgen or PID driven directly by

Hello, folks!
Is there a way to set commanded position for particular joint from VCP widget?
The machine I am building has 1 joint that positions one of the saw
blades. I would like to be able to set its position from VCP (most
