Cncjs: Feature request: Decimal Imperial units on jogging button

Created on 14 May 2018  路  3Comments  路  Source: cncjs/cncjs

Description

Simply requesting that I can set decimal increments instead of fractional on the jogging controls. I'm used to pressing a button to set it to jog 0.2in, for example. Now I'm presented with crazy fractions like 1/128" and its a bit odd. I don't believe it used to be like this in older versions, I do not remember running into this before. Is there a way to get it back?

Sorry, it's my fault. I'm not familiar enough with the imperial system so I don't know the expectation for particular preferences. I will add decimal options back so you can select between fractional and decimal units for jogging control.

Not a problem! Yeah, in imperial from my experience, no machinist ever works in fractional, only decimal. I wish we could just do metric but.. well, you know how it is.

Fixed in 1.9.16
