known bugs:
G1 and G17 get confussed
multiline Gcode not recognized

Todo:
Set moving arrows icons for different machines axis configurations .. not only XYZ, but A,E UVW for 5 axis 6 axis or N axis configurations.
Simplify configuration files to json style.
Add about box
Make log update window to not need console to run program and configure.
Make documentation on how to use. Is even difficult for me to use some of the features.
Translate is too slow!!!

(Done)-Get Marlin config 
-Get Machine info info from Config: ACC max feedrate steps/mm etc...
-Set Machine Config defaults in Configuration <-> check if same prompt to replace if different.

-Stream:
qstream when >100 lines else use normal send. (Not necessary) ->qstream starts immediately
-Use simulate to set buffer times to send.(No simulation, can'T be accurate with different machines)
-Buffered streaming by buffer size-> specially when no autopositioning (Currently size is number of lines, is made by size)
-Start from any position, line, run just a portion or lines. (Done)
Log streaming process last position, last code and line sent (finished)

Simulate position->while running for visualize too.
Visualization-> sycronyze with stream

You can use the same batton generic structure for visualization. Add a Visualization Batton and a read from machine


position (Machine and program)(instantaneous and set),
state, 
Feedrate/speed (instantaneous and set)
graphic->realtime simulation. (Laser view, drawview,3D print view,CNC view) 
Queue of commands as in lasergrbl but 

Move transform -> Long moves Separate into smaller movements to be able to pause/ stop in the middle

Gimage:
-Gimage needs to be updated to use CCD, is just producing Marlin code.
-Configuration is difficult to use.

Gimage config
  
 G transforms-> 
 spatial coordinates, Scaling,rotating etc 
 or power S255 to S1000
 or code replaced by other code M106 by M3
 
 Calculate intensities for laser. (Power <-> speed) (also to reduce power on acceleration)
 -Fill following curves,hatching, crosshatching
 -Vectorize and curve fitting->Vectorize to parametric, bezier curves.
 -Draw filling contours
 
VBD class: 
 Battons types:
 pushbutton, 2 state, Click on/off -> (Done)
 knobs/slide
 timer  
 visualization batton
 Save/Load batton structs -> (Done)
 Linking for loops
 
 Loops:
 Allow variables (parameters)
 Sendcmd->Read Machine response.
 put loop/action in queue-> run queue
 Do actions with the battons-> just run Gcode, Send to text/file
 Set multiple actions in queue-> then run.
 Wait for user click
 Param inputs->outputs
 connect battons
 let if/for/while/
 
Maybe:
Add parallel port, -> parsing and simulating all signals
