Vistacnc P4-SE not working on 1.2117 2019 screenset

My Vistacnc P4-Es pendant works on UCCNC ver 1.2117 using the default screenset but not the 2019 screenset. Any way to fix this?

You should be asking VistaCNC.

Yes I tried asking Vistacnc the question first but I received a "We don't support Beta versions" answer. I thought I'd ask the question here just in case I was missing something. I'm not the first to encounter this problem according to several other posts.

I don't have a Vista pendant unfortunately so we can't debug it.
I think that probably the problem is that on the old screenset there are the 226, 227 etc. position DROs, these work in a way that they show work or machine coords depending on the Machine coords button state.
The new screenset do not have these DROs, so probably the Vistapendant plugin is reading the positions from the old DRO numbers which are not available.

Try to copy the position DROs using the UCCNC screen editor and give them 226, 227, 228, 229 etc. XYZA... numbers.
You could hide the DROs or put them to a screen which you not using, e.g. on the help screen or off screen coordinates, so they don't disturb you.
And check if the pendant is working this way or not?
