Can't connect while moving useful message

[wouldchuck]

So my computer is crappy and tends to freeze. It froze while in the middle of a maslow job so I have restarted the computer and tried to reconnect. Last time this happened the robot happily went on it’s way concentrating on the gcode. I think it is doing that now as well but I do get this helpful message

I have not tried feedhold yet, do you think if I click on that it will pause, i can reload the ui and then see generally what it is doing? I like this screen but I think this is still a work in progress solution. Ideally people’s computers are stable but in reality this will happen a lot.

COmment:
I like this screen

Question: is feedhold the same as pause? Will it reload the ui and can I then continue?

This is an annoying limitation of FluicNC. Basically it can’t calculate the movements and also generate the webpage at the same time so it won’t let you reload the page until the machine stops.

Unfortunately freehold fully stops the machine and you can’t restart…I believe that it will even end up in the “Extended Out” state and will need “Apply Tension” before it will move again.

It might be an option to add pause to that screen which is a good idea.
