Re: so far so good...
as long as the hole is smaller than the octagonal part of the spacer it won't matter, right? So no need for those holes to be so tight. The idea of the eccentric spacers is to adjust the distance between the V role and the maker slide. If the beveled part fits snuggly in the hole you can very preci...

Re: Enhance UX of LitePlacer
Malte, your proposal is great! Using a master-detail grid (thats how Microsoft and my companies tool vendor devExpress call the feature of displaying two different but interrelated record sets) is an excellent idea 8-) ! I like the idea of not cluttering the UI full of buttons and using context menu...

I got my LitePlace to work and the mechanic is running smooth and accurate. :D :D I currently use the original Juha Software with the default homing acc and speed values (2000/2000 for X & Y 500/1000 for Z). When I home the device from let's say the center of the work area the HomeXYZ works fine...

Malte, your suggestion is very good. I was missing a tab like that also. Here are some additional thoughts: Markers: I would still like to be able to set individual marks as special locations. For instance for tray locations and fiducials. So either we could dynamically add them to the special locat...

Re: Code Contributions to the software
@thereza: congratulations, your redesign of the UI is very good. 8-) Just some small misalignments of some buttons and group box locations and sizes. I know you'll fix them. And you added menu bar and a clear button to the serial monitor. Not to forget the CameraView form! You could even make your c...
