I could have had them just round off all numbers to even inches. :D

Thanks for all the help. Especially on Sunday. I can use all the info on future screens. And I can have them finished by tomorrow. I'm sure Elon will love them. :D

All right "groove guys" (get it?)
The screens turned out very nice. Now all I need is a macro that will activate button 129 on the screen when I press a mechanical button.
So instead of running the whole program, it will run one blk at a time each press.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Mario

What does a "mechanical button" mean? Is it a key on the keyboard, or is it an external switch? Keys can be set to activate buttons on the Hotkeys screen, and external switches on the Input trigger screen.

And one more thing, Mario, OSK will know the MDI input in some days. I'll ask you (and anybody else) to run some tests when it will be ready to release.

I can test your keyboard with a touchscreen if you'd like. The switch is external, like a limit switch.
Thank you.

OK, connect your switch to any input and GND on your motion controller. You can check on the Diagnostics screen if your switch works (and also you can find the input). Go to Input triggers and set this port and pin to function 129. If function works only when you release the button, then check Active low.

I'd prefer the GCode keyboard by Dan911 for touchscreen because it has only keys I need. But that's just me.
