I've activated the webcam plugin in UCCNC and would like to activate the plugin via a button on the run screen rather than having to go thru the config/general/plugins/show route. Is that possible? Ideally I'd like to be able to specify the location and size of the popup screen but that's not necessary. Just getting it to activate by a button would be great.

Yup it is possible...

through calling a macro:
Function: void Pluginshowup(string Pluginfilename)
Description: This function calls a Plugin file's Showup_event(); function. This is useful when the plugin should do something on a button press event, forexample when it should show it's GUI interface.
Example: exec.Pluginshowup("Plugintest.dll");

Not sure if it's in the present release but it will be available shortly.

Yes PluginShowup() works now. You would create it in a Macro inside the series of macros assigned for buttons (m20000 - m20999) then you can assign that macro to a button on screen.

Robert is paying better attention than I am (;-) . I must be slowing down.

robert and vmax549, thanks for the quick response. I had assumed there would be a way to do it. Great to have such helpful members here. Regards.
