Cycle Time Monitor
cycle_time_plugin.py |
1.34 |
Estimates cycle time, logs actual per-tool segment time, and sends optional completion/tool-change notifications. Recent changes:
- # 1.34 - Removes Cycle Time's private GTK Ctrl+H key listener and registers cycle_notify_mode() as the named action cycle_time_notify_mode with the centralized PathPilot Hotkeys manager. This prevents Ctrl+Alt+H from accidentally also matching Cycle Time's former loose Ctrl-only test. - 10/03/2026
- # 1.33 - Fixes the ATC2 unload-boundary gate from 1.32. PathPilot/LinuxCNC publishes M61 Q0 tool state before ATC2 remap commit changes Redis from unloading to loading, so the exact Tn -> T0 handoff now accepts an active AUTO_SWAP transaction in either unloading or loading state. This makes the segment switch occur at the observed Q0 edge instead of falling through to the later T0 -> Tnew edge. Manual/non-ATC behavior remains unchanged. - 10/01/2026
- # 1.32 - ATC2 AUTO_SWAP timing now hands segment ownership to the incoming tool at the exact unload-complete boundary: the Tn -> T0 tool_in_spindle edge produced immediately after atc2_unload_pocket returns. The outgoing tool therefore owns its unload time; the incoming tool owns its load/retract time. A short edge-local Redis confirmation of atc2_change_state=loading makes the handoff ATC2-specific and fail-safe without altering manual tool-change behavior or adding a polling timer. - 10/01/2026

- # 1.00 - Delegates notebook visibility to No Hidden Notebook Tabs when present; removes per-switch page.show_all() restoration to avoid touchscreen tab-strip churn. - 9/30/2026

- # 1.16 - Manage Tabs recognizes No Hidden Notebook Tabs API v3 persistent preferences: hidden tabs and tab order now survive PathPilot restarts/reboots, restore actions clear the corresponding saved preferences, and WCS Matrix is protected because it owns this recovery UI. Also recognizes runtime page IDs assigned with widget.set_name(). - 10/02/2026

Adjustable Tab Widths

Adjusts PathPilot main notebook tab widths and names. Recent changes:
- # 1.00 - Stops rebuilding the main GtkNotebook tab-label widgets after every page switch. Managed labels are now updated in place, while page-added/startup/config-change handling remains. This avoids tab-strip remap/focus churn seen with absolute touchscreens. - 9/30/2026

Tool Life Manager

1.53 |
Full featured in-PathPilot Tool Life Manager Recent changes:
- # 1.53 - Adds a cutter-diameter callout to the left of the Entire Tool Diagram cutter and makes TLM metadata comparison unit-invariant so G20/G21 display changes do not create Update? states or metadata events. Numeric Description/Diameter/Length baselines are stored canonically in inches while the UI continues following PathPilot units. - 9/24/2026
- # 1.52 - Cleans the Entire Tool Diagram layout: hides the secondary dimensions card behind a code toggle, extends reference/interface guides with labels moved to the right, uses explicit opposing dimension arrowheads, makes OAL/Stickout labels horizontal, and removes the footer/explanation/Open-Print controls. - 9/24/2026
- # 1.51 - Adds View Entire Tool Diagram beside holder editing. Generates a dimensioned SVG of the assigned holder/cutter using the same holder reference and cutter-envelope math as Gremlin; OAL is spindle-reference-to-tip, stickout is holder/collet-interface-to-tip, and dimensions follow PathPilot inch/mm units. Includes Save SVG and Open / Print. - 9/24/2026
