Operation


The default 'Activate Home' checkbox is on. When it is on, the functions described below will work, when it is off, nothing will be done.

Settings


Name of Home File

Default: home.gcode

At the beginning of a each layer, home will add the commands of a gcode script with the name of the "Name of Home File" setting, if one exists. Home does not care if the text file names are capitalized, but some file systems do not handle file name cases properly, so to be on the safe side you should give them lower case names. Home looks for those files in the alterations folder in the .skeinforge folder in the home directory. If it doesn't find the file it then looks in the alterations folder in the skeinforge_plugins folder.

Examples


The following examples home the file Screw Holder Bottom.stl. The examples are run in a terminal in the folder which contains Screw Holder Bottom.stl and home.py.

> python home.py
This brings up the home dialog.

> python home.py Screw Holder Bottom.stl
The home tool is parsing the file:
Screw Holder Bottom.stl
..
The home tool has created the file:
.. Screw Holder Bottom_home.gcode
