Hi,
With the latest release of TNG (2023.05.04) the Zoom Part feature is broken. It zooms to somewhere like the central of the X/Y defined range no matter where the part to actually machine is located.
Hi,

Working on it.
Latest version is available here.
Let me know if there is still a problem.
Is the optical bug also solwed?
Here:
https://cnc.zone/tng/tng
Which "optical bug"?
"tool" plunges to material/table more than it shoud, older versions have "tool" tip exact to layer they cut, now ( take a look att files)
machine othervice works as shoud, no tool braking
Fixed! Thank you!
do we have a change log for the current version?
The last entry in ChangeLog.txt is from 2022-12-11
Getting an error for this piece of code in the Expr file:
if(_spindle_on,
exec(
midi_noteon(10, 36, 127)
),
exec(
midi_noteoff(10, 36)
)
);
This piece of code used to work in the previous version.Expression Error:
if(_spindle_on, exec( midi_noteon(10, 36, 127) ), exec( midi_noteoff(10, 36) ) )
Unknown function 'midi_noteoff'.
Expression function '#Loop' removed!
Error:
if(_spindle_on, exec( midi_noteon(10, 36, 127) ), exec( midi_noteoff(10, 36) ) );
I'm using it to control the light on my MIDI controller Spindle pad as per the status of the spindle. I've tried both midi_noteoff and midi_noteOff as per the cnc.zone reference. Even the midi_noteon function shows the same error.
I have tried removing the exec() block and just doing the following
if(_spindle_on, midi_noteon(x, y, z), midi_noteoff(x, y));
It still shows the same error.
This is a bug. I didn't noticed capital O and I implemented function incorrectly. This will be fixed in next version.
Can you give details on when the next version will be available? Also, the cnc.zone website has the release from 15/5/2023 while the main website has the release from 4/5/2023. Is this intentional? Also, would it be possible to provide a repository of previous releases? And the same with firmware updates? I'm not currently using my machine, so the EXPR script having issues is fine for now. But it would be appreciated to be able to downgrade to a previous version with matching firmware in case of bugs like this one in the future.
Nevertheless a better repository for the files and a clearer communication about updates and change logs would be highly appreciated
Yes that would be desirable
Official version is 4/5/2023, beta version is 15/5/2023.
New version will be in few days, just need to test it little more.
If you turn on “Rotate” (180 degrees) and select “Start from selected line” the machine moves to unchanged coordinates. This can be seen on the display of the program itself PlanetCNC. The tool cone does not follow the program line.
