On a custom MDI screen (touchscreen ) I would like to eliminate the flyout keyboard and have the keyboard numbers right on the screen along with X /Y/Z. I know it involves the keyboard source code.
If you need the numeric keys to enter data into fields on UCCNC screen, then enable the "On-screen keyboard" plugin. If you want to enter text also and use the MDI field, then it's another problem.
Very helpful and I know if I keep trying with help I will get what I need. This is for a 2 axis machine that only needs number keys and the letters x and y. Even though the windows keyboard would work, it is not the best. Keys only used (on the screen) would be the better of the two. Someone once said "The enemy of perfection is "good enough" ". Thank you for the help so far.
So my thoughts for the x/y table is a touchscreen with an MDI input. All that is needed is an X and Y DRO. The user would input the X or Y dimension as an MDI instruction The gage would then move to the location, Having the letters X Y and 0-9 numbers on the screen would eliminate the annoying windows flyout keyboard.
