PutiaCNC 0.3.5

What's new in 0.3.5

New

• Time by operation. Click the estimated time in the status bar to see where it goes: one row per operation (with its colour, a bar, the time and the share of the total), the wait for the spindle, and the total. Cutting is solid, moves are faded.
• Hover help on labels as well as fields. In the Machines window, the tool window, the operation cards, the stock panel and the small dialogs, a label now shows the same help as its field. Greyed-out controls keep their help.
• New help texts for the pass depth (peck, for a drill) and for the machine's rapid rate.
• Editing a text. The original fades to a thin ghost while the preview of your changes shows, and the preview is drawn thicker, so the two are easy to tell apart.

Fixed

• Machines window layout. The close button is back in its place. Time correction, Line numbers and Copy test lines stop a little short of the right edge, and the Tool holder row no longer widens the window.
• Font list in the text tool. A long font name is cut with "…" to fit its row (the full name is in the hover help) instead of running under the scroll bar.
• Chip-load help in the tool window now shows when you hover its text; before, it never appeared.

Testing

• A frame-time test for the 3D preview.
• Tests that hover every label and field in the dialogs and operation cards and check the help text.
• A project for trying the pauses (M0) on a real machine, with every operation as an air cut (tests/data/hardware_m0_aircut.project.json).
