Dynamic G Code Dialog Creation
Below is the complete sample python script mywidget.py file that is included with the CodeSharkFCs download:
This dialog allows for user entry of an X and Y coordinate position. When the user clicks on create, the g code move is written to the editor.
This dialog is based on the sample found here: https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Dialog_creation
# sample dialog
# see https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Dialog_creation
# to use:
# import mywidget
# myDialog = mywidget.createMove()

CaptureFC is the python module built from source found in CodeSharkFCs unit scrMain.pas. Using python4delphi's TPythonModule this module is created and made available for import into the python interpereter. Module CaptureFC contains function WrtArgs, which "writes to the CodeSharkFCs editor".
