Existing Feature Updates

  • When user clicks the STOP button, ensure that the M2 command is sent for GRBL devices to reset the overrides.

  • Clear ToolState on device disconnect (#1448)

User Interface Updates

  • Added “Workspace DPI Scaling” display setting. This allows higher resolution drawing / previews to be switched off to improve line visibility on very high resolution display (eg. Apple Retina), or to improve performance on low powered devices.

Miscellaneous

  • Add the ability to skip the first tool change macro (#1480)

Code Refactors

New Features

  • Fluting pattern visualization preview in CNC operations dialog

Can you provide some detail on this? I accomplished this with some conditional gcode but if there is a checkbox or something, that would be great.

No rush. It’s the holiday. I appreciate all of your work on this. It’s looking great.

Just wanted to followup on this. Thanks.

@jeyeager, so sorry to have not gotten back to you sooner.

For most users, it’s extremely likely that the first tool change in the file is something they already did while setting up the job. So we let you skip the first TLO probe if you desire.

When one is prompted to insert Tool X the very first time for the job, the message dialog will have Continue, Abort, and Skip. Every other time it’s just Continue and Abort.
