    Screen DRO readout

    Hi All,

    Is it possible to set the decimal places in Mach's DRO's. I wish to limit the resolution to show to two decimal places as 1/100th of a millimeter is more than enough resolution.


    Cheers,
    Brett.

    Yes, but you'll need to modify the screenset using Screen4, Mach's screen designer. Open the screen, right click the DRO, and change the format string.
