user tab extension and other stuff like manualtoolchange

[alkabal]

Hi

I have many time try to work with other GUI, but allways something was not good or not work fine for my use with BBB (i'm a windows comon user)

test made touchy/axis/gmoccapy/Xmotion with 13" 1920*1080 touchsreen multitouch

remote debian computer/windows computer and ssh -X (work good but is not really fast)

Xorg on the BBB without desktop (not found the way for fullscreen , touchkeyboard florence and other not good experience)

Xorg + icewm (not bad but not perfect, touchkeyboard florence and other not good experience, axis icon are too small)

Xmotion (great experience but dev is stopped and the actual version is not enough for lathe)(not work with multitouch device, need mouse emulated touchsrcreen only)

As my understanding Axis is the most complet solution with "easy understandable" add on like pyvcp/gladevcp (many difficulty with some unsolved error for have working config gmoccapy or touchy)

Allways i like to return to Cetus because user experience is really really better but unfortunately Cetus have some missing function that make me allways wan't to return to Axis but after i like to return to Cetus ^^

As my understanding and for my use with lathe i think the most missing function are :
Manual tool change extension
Panel like pyvcp (spindle request/actual speed, toolchange button, sensor/relay display state)
Lathe macro like the Andypugh lathemacro gladevcp.

For sure i like and already try to understand QtQuickVcp/cetus code but for now it' not easy for me and i'm really unsure about possible success.
