` modifier


Recommended Posts

The Grave is the "conditional string" output modifier. It does exactly what JP said: if this string is the only valid output, suppress it. The intent is to prevent output like this;

G01 X2.0 Y1.0 F30.

G01

G01 X 3.45

Y2.21 Z .332

G03 X 4.45 Y3.21 I0. J1.

G03

G01 Y5.

Where you would end up with output of the String if it was 'forced' with the Asterisk "force output" modifier (*).

That's because, embarrassingly, there is a copy-and-paste error on that page that I just fixed. :wallbash:  See attached pages...

You and me both, I guess.:wine:
