This is an update which fixes a bug on the G-code export dialog involving the post-processor selection. This bug has apparently been around for a few versions and somehow managed to slip by unnoticed for months. Users were able to click the post-processor selection button and choose another post to be used when exporting G-code as intended. However, after selecting a post the button would cease to work - it would no longer pop up an "Open File" dialog box, even after re-starting PixelCNC. The only way users could get around the bug was to default their configuration via the Config menu and then the post selection button would work properly again.
Automatic updates have already been put into effect, and anybody who is unable to use the auto-update system can download and manually install the v1.42a builds that have been uploaded. v1.41a downloads have been completely removed because v1.42a is virtually identical otherwise.
Also, the post-processors have been changed to default to UseSpindle being enabled, so that exported G-code includes spindle command blocks as was the case pre-v1.41a. Coolant and toolchange command blocks are still disabled in the default posts as with v1.41a.
Back to the grind!
