WebUI-3 release 3.0.0-4b1-FluidNC

Thanks for adding the option to choose the step size Mike. I have one further question. When I am trying to set the step size on my tablet the screen does not scroll all the way down to the save option. I can however log on with my pc and see the whole screen. Did I miss a setup option? I also noticed a limit when you enter corrections for steps (trying to tram my lowrider). I am off 2 mm over 1600mm but it appears to truncate after 3 decimal places but that is missing a decimal place after 1600mm for fixing 2mm (1/16") . Is this something I just need to set in the html file when I transfer over. I apologies I am still trying to figure out the fluidnc thing.

Did you update to this version? That should resolve that issue. If you are still having it even with that version, provide details on what tablet and browser you are using.

I’m assuming you are setting your pulloff values for Y squaring. I don’t understand why you need more than 3 decimal places? 0.001 mm is far more accuracy than you need (or can measure).

Thanks Jason I thought I had the latest, will try update again this evening and test. My tablet is a samsung 2014/2015 tablet running chrome. I will let you know after the update. I never thought of using the pulloff for fixing when it got the length wrong, I thought that was just for off square. I just use the steps per mm, it was at 50 but that took me over 1602mm and and a bit so reduced it. When you go to 2400mm (4x8 build) it starts stacking. Why I asked about extra decimals was I just divided 2.x mm/1600mm and found that I needed a bit more than 3 decimal places.
PS. Just to clarify this is just the Y axis I am trying to calibrate at the moment. I also am just trying to see how well I can tune it, not intent on chasing the impossible. If it makes no difference then no worries, just seeking knowledge and having fun.

If you’ve got a current version of Chrome, it should be fine. If it’s really old, then it becomes a web development adventure.

If 50 steps per mm gets you 1602 instead of 1600, I would think 49.938 is close enough. Even 49.94 is probably close enough.

3.9.8 should trigger the web installer to use the webuiv3 right? If so I want to get some testers on it to try and move the uiv3 finally.

I haven’t looked.

I’m not sure Mitch or Bart ever merged my PR to get the new version into the installer

I can just add the file to the config repo for now, same difference. The flashing is what is the most important.

So i was just perusing the grblhal builder! They have an option to install both 2 and 3 at the same time. Is that possible in fluidnc? Could make testing easier.

I have that setup with FluidNC but I wouldn’t recommend it for normal users. It’s just macros renaming files. However, to fit both index.html.gz files, you need to do a custom build to take advantage of an 8MB ESP32. It can be done with a 4MB one as well with a different special build.

That was the very start of my “WebUI Shenanigans”.

finally…

The good part about it, is that I changed it to point to the “latest release” on github now.

So in the future, any releases won’t need a PR anymore to get into the installer

Sweet so the next config update I can take out the big file.
