Draw Prevue Cursor Issue #52

Open cmcgrath5035 opened 10 years ago

cmcgrath5035 commented 10 years ago

Running build 3009, both Linux and Win7_64 On GCode Tab, when cursor is in the Draw PreVue bounding box: Linux - White cursor on black background Win7_64 - Black cursor on black background (sort of hard to see)

I bet OSx is like Linux, there fore you don't see this.....

Oh right! I ordered a Windows laptop to test this stuff on. Should see better windows support soon! Thanks for the info. On Mar 23, 2014, at 8:47 PM, cmcgrath5035 notifications@github.com wrote:

I am having very good luck, relatively speaking, running the Windows.jar on Linux. And a Win7VM on a reasonable horsepower PC works similarly as well

Still seeing lots of flaky behavior build 3009 and tinyG 380.04. I'm trying to figure a way to be more concise than just "flaky" before I post it to issues.

Current area of focus - it seems that after an extended jog session, moving the machine around, tinyG loses track of where the tool is, refuses to zero axes, sometimes won't take G0 commands to move. Can't tell yet for sure if it is tinyG or tgFX I am leaning toward tgFX.

Its tgFX. I have seen this too! I milled some stuff today and this was apparent. Look at my google plus and you can see the stuff I did today.
