Hi Poppabear10, I first saw your 5 axis screen set and thought I'd change it a bit.
Please let me know what you think guys & girls.

1280 x 1024 res

Now theres a screen I can handle!!!

Although I cant seem to get the bitmaps in the right place, I'm going to instll screen4 to see where they go.

One screen that I have been wantig and slowly working on but havent made any progress on is a screen with a regular blue background, white text, as simplified and unglorified as possible, something that looks like some of the EMC screens I have seen and the others I have seen.

I forgot to mention that the bitmaps need to go in Mach3\Bitmaps\MillBitmaps\UT Buttons.
Also it's been designed for 1280 x 1024 (all the images will look crystal clear at this resolution)

Yea,

yours is definatly pretty. The bit maps where a problem for me too, so I added a zip file, with the required bitmaps, for those earlier releases that where missing them.

Darc: What program did you use to make your buttons and stuff, me personally, I just edited the buttons already in existance in mach 3.

I used Crystal Button to make all the buttons, I'm about to put up a 3 axis version.

what is "crystal button?". Where would I get a copy? There are some custom buttons I would love to redo on my screen, since the stock ones I "edited", in MS paint, and they didn't come out looking very nice.

Well Darc,

I do indeed like how you changed the looks of all the buttons on my 5 axis screen, one of the screens that I was to lazy to change (cause I dont use it that often). Is the positioning page. Would you be willing to Re-do that page, and add the 5th to it?

Yeah I can do that.Try downloading the file with the 3 & 5 axis screen, I think it's on that one.

I did, download your 5 axis, but the positioning page only has the 4 axis.

Ops,

Darc: Sorry, I meant the "Offsets" page, not the positioning page!!! (my bad).

So, if your willing could you update that page to 5 axis, I basically didn't change that page at all. I re-did all the screens but that one, (since I couldn't re-create all the pretty pictures on it).

Let me know when or if you will do it, so I can get the new screen set from you. Looks like we made a good team, I do the functional model and you do the "Marketing model".........hehehehe.
