| Summary | 0003275: Path Custom-GCode Splits Comments, introducing errors | ||||
| Description | Custom GCode splits comments across Rows in some cases. This is a bit nuanced, and I've been trying to isolate it. I thought it was based on the Width of the editor, but can't say for sure. This causes my CNC-Control software to "Hang" when run, though it doesn't generate an Error in Path-WB. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Use Path-WB's Custom-GCode Tool from the Path->Partial Commands sub-menu. The default width is narrow. Type a long comment which will get split across Rows. Note that the final GCode will have a Row containing comment-text, but with the preceding "(" comment delineation on the previous row. | ||||

I'm pretty sure I verified this but I can't repeat it now. The lines seem to be wrapping normally. That is, when the editor is narrow, they break and wrap, but the final output is a single long line. I verifying this by examining the path commands in the custom editor, but also in the display window at post process time and also in the output .tap file. In all cases, it's a single long line. Gcode, at least in linuxcnc, has a maximum line length of 256 characters. If the line is longer than that, it just won't load. I suppose if very long comment lines (greater than 256) are needed, the linuxcnc post can be modified to automatically break them at 256. Is it worth it? |

joshm can you weigh in again. Can you repeat this reliably? |

I just tried that again, and cannot reproduce at this time. Were there always line numbers displayed in the GCode-Inspection and Custom-GCode windows? The lines are splitting and numbers reflect correctly. I also tried COPY/PASTE between Inspection and Custom and Post-Processor windows but cannot induce an error. |
