Support / Re: Jump to a line number ?

Hmm... You could probably put comments there and then search for them. Or look for the line in e.g. Notepad and then search for the coordinate.

Support / Jump to a line number ?

« Last post by Wall-E on January 15, 2020, 05:36:53 PM »

Sorry for this question not directly related to KUKA|prc, but : once a program is selected, how can I jump to a certain line ?
The "Escalator" slider is super slow in a program with over 25 000 lines...

Hi Johannes,

Thanks for coming back to me.
"Actually when you enter the project name it does overlay it in red"
AHA ! I see that now.
The reason I didn't notice is that I use the "Expose file name and save output" option.

As I process many Gcode files from Fusion, I use GH to reformat the file names and input them directly in the KUKA|prc main component.
As you know, I'm not a fan of all the stuff that goes on in the main component, despite the sleek interface, as I feel it deprives me from many possibilities offered by GH.

You might want to add a "Filename compliance" to the "Analysis" component...

Hello,

Actually when you enter the project name it does overlay it in red. But I'll see if I can make an additional warning!
I don't believe KRC4 is any different in that regard.
The problem is not so much the file name itself, but that the project name in the *.SRC file is picky. You may be able to set the filename to something "illegal" as long as the project definition in the *.src file is "legal".

Best,
Johannes

Don't use a number at the beginning of a file name!

Oh gawwwd ! That's so silly...
Is KRC4 as autistic as KRC2 in that respect ?
Could you add warnings regarding compliance of src file names to the KUKA sticklings ?

Hello,

The Play component was problematic as it could completely lock your Rhino if you input the wrong settings, forcing you to restart the software.
We have implemented similar functionality in a safer way in the KUKA|prc Settings / Analysis tab.

Hope this helps!

Hi Johannes,

There's something fishy with this .SRC file : I get the infamous "FILE DESCRIPTION CANNOT BE PROCESSED" message.

I just spent an hour fiddling with file names and just could'nt find what it is the controller doesn't like about it...

I do not have a KUKA play button in my Grasshopper Software -I assume I have the latest software ? Is this a new development and the play button is now integrated somewhere else ?

Hello Jason,

Are you sure that the tool is properly set up in Sunrise Workbench and uses the same values as in KUKA|prc?
Especially the B rotation which should be -90 or -1.57 if radians are used?
My guess would be that your tool in the Sunrise Workbench is set to B=0.

Best,
Johannes
