          I’ve been using the preview version for a few jobs and find it a big improvement on the standard DWC for CNC. A couple of thoughts from this experience are:

          The X and Y are displayed to 1 decimal place. For me it would be useful to be able to see 2 decimal places, perhaps selectable as a machine specific option, or maybe just on the DRO plug-in screen?

          In the jog plug-in screen, buttons to set X,Y and Z to zero in the current work coordinate system would be very useful (as has been mentioned by others).

          However, perhaps a better option might be to provide access to macro buttons on the right hand side of either the jog screen or DRO screen and then we can define our own macros to set XY, do Z-probing etc.?

            @cjm Thank you for the feedback. As mentioned some of these items are on my todo list. The extra decimal places make sense to me as well. I will play with the jog control a bit more. Probably switch the home buttons out and put in a home machine and go to zero set of buttons.

              Great Job!

              My suggestions:
              JOG - Add incremental or Continuous movement
              JOG - Right click on buttons to adjust movement amounts

              DRO - Increase frequency of updates and Increase to 2 decimal places
              DRO - show conversion under smaller each in inches 0.001"

              DRO.jpg

                @Adamfilip Thanks for the feedback.

                I need to look further into continuous movement. I tried some experiments with it and the problem that I ran into is that it tends to overshoot because the gcode commands are queued. The other jog control plugin that I wrote for gamepads has a similar issue.

                As far as frequency that is driven by the DWC getting updates from the Duet. Under machine specific you can adjust the frequency of updates (Default is 250ms). Lowering that number will increase the number of updates which will cause the UI to refresh quicker.

                  An idea that just came to my mind: how about a user-switch to select between incremental and continuous movement and the latter will accumulate all jog commands until the user stops sending movement commands for e.g. 1s (possibly configurable). While this time show a small indicator on where the journey will end and only send the movement once this "presetting" is done?

                  Not sure if it's a good idea to do it like that. But I wanted to toss it into the ring.

                    @wilriker I do something similar to what mention with my gamepad jogging plugin. When you first hold down a control on the game pad the first few moves stutter a little before moving at a smooth pace.

                    The CNC control I have personally used the most uses a USB connection so it doesn't have to worry about packet travel.

                    It's worth playing with it some more, I do understand the desire for continuous jogging especially on larger machines.

                      Hi guys, I'm not really into this whole github thing. I think you are doing AN AMAZING work here. But I have no idea how i can run DWC-CNC on my Duet2wifi... can somebody give an idiot(me^^) a hint?!

                      (I uploaded the files of the release: Duet Release.png
                      into my www-folder of the SD Card.. But my interface still looks like the 3D-printer interface:
                      Duet Interface.png

                      I also added M453 into the config file:
                      duet config.png

                      can it be that my firmware is too old?

                        @AverageUser Perhaps it's still cached. Try pressing Ctrl+Shift+R to reload DWC.

                            @AverageUser You can upload the DWC-SD ZIP file on the System page too. Does that work?

                              @chrishamm And what do I do with the files inside the www-folder then? Erase them?

                                @AverageUser Under normal circumstances you don't need to worry about extra files, they don't take up much space. When you upload the ZIP bundle on the System Files page, the existing files in /www are automatically overwritten.

                                  @chrishamm Okey i put the zip.file in the sys-folder:
                                  DWC in Sys.png

                                  and deleted all the files in the www-folder. Let's see what happens.

                                  No it says this:
                                  mounted error.png

                                  Im completely lost with this... lol ^^

                                    @AverageUser Oh well, I wasn't talking about the physical sys directory but about the Files => System page on DWC itself. That lets you update DWC by using the Upload button.

                                    Now that the www directory is gone, create a new 'www' directory in the root of your SD card and unzip the DWC zip file into it. Make sure you have index.html.gz in there so it can be loaded from the Duet again.

                                      Nothing, i just cant make the dashboard change into cnc mode: CNC MODE Selected.png
                                      here it states that it is in CNC Mode. After refreshing: nothing changes.

                                      I have no idea what im doing wrong.

                                      But the plugins are there, like jog...

                                          do you have M453 in your config to put it into CNC mode?
