Hi.

If this is in already great. If not please can it be added to touch screen function.

i haven t had a chance to play with the touch screen yet but if I want to off set a axis it would be useful not to have to plug a key board into the masso to get a number pad. The rest of the functions can be taken up with dedicated inputs.

Cheers

You're going to need letters also, no point having G-Code without letters. I think the keyboard is to stay. I dont think there is a system out there without a keyboard.

Touchscreen is just a flat mouse without a keyboard popup like on android or iPad .

I have been setting one up for a customer and I suggested the touch screen option assuming that it had already implemented the keypad.

Now we are going back to mach3 as on a the advantech touchscreen under windows the keyboard pops up and doesn't cost extra.

Sad when unfinished features cost extra.
