I am Very Very new to Mach 3 and Have completely gotten myself lost on wanting to customize a screen layout for a CNC project. Would appreciate any helpful hints and or direction to go. The wife said that being dumb sometimes is a god given talent. I didn't think so until now

Is it possible to add my business logo and customize the screen to show one or three axis. For the one axis machine, will need to show z axis only but want to show where I start at & how far I travel, but want to try to dress it up a bit. Yeah I know I want too much but I can dream, right. Sure want to learn more.
You have helped me before and I appreciate it. Thanks

If you have no idea at all where to start, you should probably watch the video(s). You can do pretty much anything you want. The screen background is just a .bmp image, and you can add as many or few buttons or DRO's as you want. The possibilities are endless.

Will look at this tonight. The other video you are speaking of would be nice for me to learn from also. I thank you for your help and for looking up one from Benny.

OK, I got a chance to watch the videos last night but I must have missed how to assign G code to the buttons. Love screen4. I learned a lot (I think). The lady of the house said that cant be because I was only working for 3 hours. I fooled her. I fell asleep and had a hell of a hangover

With the new versions of Mach3, you add the vb script to the buttons in Mach3. Find the menu item "Edit button script", select the button, and I think you put in something like this:
code "G1 Xx Yx Zx"
I can double check later.

Gerry or whom ever
Went thru the screen 4 knowlege base with video and tried to learn as much as I could but apparently missing a large piece. Is there a place to go thru from start to finish on screen designing using bit maps and all and a place to do nothi9ng but practice or I would even be open to someone that just walk me thru the process. Need help in the worst kind of way. Live in Tenn right outside Nashville.
thanks for any and all inputs

I will keep showing my ignorance and I know that but in my zeal to learn I must take that chance. I keep running across Scren designer. Is ther a copy of this program or can I download or?
