tgfx windows x86 x64 build 3256 - Infrequent startup issue #65

Open cmcgrath5035 opened 10 years ago

cmcgrath5035 commented 10 years ago

Saw this (infrequently) on 3009, still seeing (infrequently) with 3256; both Win7 and Linux

On startup, X and or Y coordiates don't display as 0.000, even if tinyG has been reset. Values appear in the data boxes even before the connection and download of information from TinyG is complete.

Can load and run gcode under this condition, but X-Y drawing and X,Y,Z and velocity databoxes don't display any action.

So far, only solution found is to exit and restart tgFX.

Difficult to reproduce - random event. ---> It is possible that a prior tgFX process hung on exit (GUI disappeared, but process still running in system manager). I'll watch for this condition in future.

I have not been able to replicate this issue reliably. If you can find out how to get this behavior to occur that would be awesome! I too have noticed this and had to restart to get it working again.
