Hi
Art left us with some holiday homework - i.e. to look at the
information to put on each screen to make setting up and running a
job on Mach2Mill flow smoothly.
The manual describes the controls in groups related to a given
function. For ecxample the Feedrate Group has the feedrate DRO
itself, the override DRO and its increment/decrement/reset buttons,
the feed mode toggle etc. While these are not all needed all the
time it is probably easiest for the user to see them all (subject of
course to space considerations!)
I have tried playing with some workflows and wanted to simulate the
screens - it is very hard work using Screen Designer. I have tried
using Photoshop and Corel Photopaint for mockups using the
screenshots of the groups from the manual. This seemed to work quite
well (although the shape of the groups is not always ideal)
I have posted the screenshots in a folder in the Files section, in
case anyone else wants to try working like this.
Best wishes
John Prentice
