Can you virtually control the pendant remote while programming in offline?

Hi guys...

I've been trying to find a feature that allows me to virtually move my probe when programming offline using the pendant.

I am having no luck. Is there a feature that allows me to do this or would this be a feature worth adding to future builds of the software?

Instead of using clearance planes and clearance cube,
I want to be able to quickly insert move points in space and I find the easiest way to do that would be to virtually control the machine and then use ctrl-m to add a move point.

I basically want to be able to move the CMM virtually instead of physically using the physical pendant remote.

Anyone know if this is do-able?

Thank you.

  • Thank you for that tip, I still find this method to be hit or miss... I wish there was a way to virtually control the probe using the joystick instead of a mouse. Depending on the view the mouse movement feature only works when adjusting views and then moving the probe which is a pain in the butt.
