Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi

OPTION Y_AXIS UP -- on run, no display  -- but program executes unseen
OPTION Y_ASIS DOWN -- all works fine

Seems that Y_AXIS UP is suppressing screen output until the program terminates.

Cheers

Any program - even a simple for / loop with print statement.   Will test modes and report fully.

The default print position is 0,0 which is off the screen. With option y_axis up you need to position the cursor. Try

PRINT @(0,mm.vres-1)"Hello"

Works - my error.

That said, something odd with my monitor and modes -- usually Mode 9 -- not the CMM2.

Thanks for the assist.
