Machine control panel

[DJmikenative]

I would really love to have a simple machine control panel inside Fusion 360. I am thinking of printrun style or the machine control panel from simplify 3D. Just a simple jog control, communication and ability to initiate a g code to play from SD card.

Having such a feature would allow me and other (DIY/Home CNC users with simple machines) to use Fusion 360 from concept to realisation without using any additional software.

At the moment I have to switch over to Simplify 3D (at the last hurdle) to jog my machine, set zeros and initiate playing the g code (that I uploaded from within Fusion 360).

I think a real simple way to communicate with the machine would be a brilliant addition, especially for mac users for whom there is little on offer.
