Show percentage done in CAM Simulation playback

Show percentage done in CAM Simulation playback

Add percentage done/played to CAM Simulation playback and one has a better percentage reference where to restart a milling job.

 

In CNC control software (like WinPCNC) one can restart a job at a certain percentage (presumably a percentage of the generated gcode lines) to pickup a job or redo a certain part after an optimization. In WinPCNC for example the preview capabilities are very limited and guessing where to restart a job is risky. A simple addition to the info section or the play-head-info-popup of the current percentage done would be of great help.

 

Even if the percentage is not exactly matching the number of generated gcode lines. It's understandable that different post processors calculate different machine steps. An indication of percentage job done is very welcome!

 

Machine Time is currently included in theplay-head-info-popup but seems to display always 100%.

While we don't have percentage, we do have simulation "bookmarks." In simulation, right click anywhere in the workspace and you'll see options for controlling bookmarks in the simulation. These bookmarks show up as yellow tick marks on the simulation timeline.
