Muiltiple issues with new installation of 0.9.14-dev #1759

Open imechura opened 1 year ago

imechura commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I installed bCnc via the windows exe installer and it appears to work for the most part but I have run into some issues that are preventing me from moving forward with it.

1) I cannot find a "tools" menu anywhere but it is referenced multiple times in the documentation. 2) I cannot see the controls on the bottom of the screen. If I got to the probe screen there are some number of controls that are cut off at the bottom of the window. It seems like there should have been a scroll bar or something. 3) There is no bCNC configuration file in my home directory but the documentation refers to one. 4) Whenever I have tried to use the autolevel function, after clicking the scan button bCNC issues a G0Z3 command which sends my Z Axis to its limit. Changing the Z Min ZMax in the autolevel panel appears to have no effect on this issue. I'm assuming that this might be in the configuration file but see #3 above.

Could these all be related somehow? I am running windows 11 home edition on a brand new laptop. The Cnc is GRBL 1.1 on an Arduino Nano clone. The cnc functioned correctly when using a different sender application.,

I do not know why the issue is displayed with "import queue error". I did not add that so I guess that github did.

I think that only instalation via pip is currently supported: https://github.com/vlachoudis/bCNC/wiki/Installation

I uninstalled the .exe version and reinstalled it with PIP and the top level menu "tools" is still not shown in the application. I have not gotten a chance to test the other issues yet.

Why would there is be a missing top level menu item?

Also whenever the application is started it prints the following:

I think it might have been renamed from Tools to CAM

In python 3.10 ( and I think all 3.x ) collections.Mapping doesn't exist. As far as I can tell, simply removing it as a base class for BaseMesh and getting rid of the vestigial imports solves the problem.
