gladevcp − Virtual Control Panel for LinuxCNC based on Glade, Gtk and HAL widgets
gladevcp [−g WxH+X+Y] [−c component-name] [−u handler] [−U useroption] [−H halfile] [−d] myfile.ui
−g WxH+X+Y
This sets the initial geometry of the root window. Use ’WxH’ for just size, ’+X+Y’ for just position, or ’WxH+X+Y’ for both. Size / position use pixel units. Position is referenced from top left.
−c component-name
Use component-name as the HAL component name. If the component name is not specified, the basename of the ui file is used.
−u handler
Instructs gladevcp to inspect the Python script handler for event handlers, and connect them to signals in the ui file.
−U useroption
gladevcp collects all useroption strings and passes them to the handler init() method as a list of strings without further inspection.
|
−x XID |
Reparent gladevcp into an existing window XID instead of creating a new top level window. |
−H halfile
gladevcp runs halfile - a list of HAL commands - by executing halcmd −c halfile after the HAL component is finalized.
|
−d |
enable debug output. |
−R gtkrcfile
explicitly load a gtkrc file.
−t THEME
set gtk theme. Default is system theme. Different panels can have different themes.
−m MAXIMUM
force panel window to maxumize. Together with the −g geometry option one can move the panel to a second monitor and force it to use all of the screen
|
−R |
explicitly deactivate workaround for a gtk bug which makes matches of widget and widget_class matches in gtk theme and gtkrc files fail. Normally not needed. |
