Jog buttons only move one direction

Since the 0.9.14 update, I’ve noticed a strange issue where my jog buttons will only move in a single direction. No matter which directional button I try to jog, the X buttons only moves the gantry up/towards the rear, and the Y buttons only moves towards the left. Before the update, they were working in proper directions up/up, down/down, left/left, right/right.

“Before the update” - which version were you on?

Check in Edit > Device Settings to see if you have $J jogging enabled, though usually if the jogging only works in a single direction it means that the controller is trying to prevent you from crashing - it thinks you are out of bounds. Make sure ‘Continuous jogging’ is disabled, and $J jogging is disabled - they change the behavior to keep you in bounds, and won’t work if you don’t have limits and homing set up.

Previously on 0.9.13, 0.9.11 before that.

Okay, we have it sorted. $J jogging WAS enabled. Disabled that and jogging buttons are moving in proper directions. Many thanks, it was driving me batty!
