I did all the hard work for you!😊 Download my custom buttons and icons for Stream Deck here: academy.learnyourcnc.com/stream-deck-button-download
If you come up any good ideas for the Stream Deck that I missed in this lesson, please let me know down below!👇
It is amazing how you are constantly coming up with new ways to make our CNC and Vetric experiences better. Thank You!
You're welcome! I like to share my passion with everyone and help in any way I can😊
Kyle- you really Enhance my CNC life! Thank you so much. Comment & Question: Comment: After I saw this Shortcut Master story, I bought the Touch Portal pro and enjoyed using it but wanted a separate keyboard. So I got a 9 key pad. A little hard to program. So, I bought the wonderful 15 key Stream Deck and LOVE IT! Your shortcut downloads were WONDERFUL and easy to set up!! THANK YOU for all the time you save me. Question: In your story you mentioned you download had all of the available shortcuts from VCarve. I wish there was one for 'INCREMENT and SAVE" as I (and probably many others) use this command a BUNCH. Do you know a way to create this as some kind of macro? Can you ask the Vectric to help us out with this and other shortcuts you think would be helpful to us dedicated VCarve users? SO APPRECIATE WHAT YOU DO FOR ALL OF US OUT HERE in CNC land. Best to you, Mike M Denver
We need a keyboard shortcut for recalculating toolpaths.
Really appreciate the effort put into this video and the amount of detail. Honestly though it was overload and I will have to rewatch if decide to purchase a stream deck. Looks like it would be handy addon. Glad I now know about this - it was new information to me.
Thanks for the comment, Rob, I am glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for all that you do to amke things easier and quicker. At the end of the video you said that we could also control smart outlets with the stream deck. Can you point me in the right direction on hoe to do this? Thanks.
I saw your teaser on Instagram, went online to search for the Stream Deck XL, found it on sale $80 off, paid about $189 for it. Started to do buttons for Aspire, got a lot of it working. Then you posted this video, I gave it a thumbs up. Just downloaded your file. Thanks a lot for the video and the file. Keep up the good work.
Awesome, I'm glad it has helped you!
Fantastic video..thank you! One thought I had is to have a button to convert for Imperial and Metric conversion...much like your divide by half buttons.
That's a great suggestion and would be easy to setup! Just insert a text function with *i= or *m= for imperial or metric conversion. Thanks Lee, I will add that to my buttons!
I use a StreamDeck for other CAD work, but have not yet set it up for Vcarve. Thanks for sharing your profiles!
You're Awesome 👍 for sharing this method of software ergonomics. Be Blessed and Salutations from France.
Thank you!
Streamdecks are for so much more than meets the eye! Great video!
For sure! Thanks, Mike!
Thanks! Just bought Touch Portal!!
Oh yeah!🙌
This will be a game changer
For sure, Rick!🙌
You could have a button for a Template folder for fast access.
That's a great idea, Frank! I'll have to add that to my Stream Deck.
So from what your saying you could do the same for Mach3 or any other Cam software?
That is correct! Even your CNC controller software!
@@LearnYourCNC I may have managed to bag a second hand on for £55/$70 I’m in the U.K.
Nice score!🙌
Great job
Thank you!
How do i make stream deck open vetric profile when i open Aspire? I followed steps but cannot get Aspire to show up in the list.
When I go to the profile for Vetric and try to set to automatically switch to this profile when the Stream Deck app window is closed and application is in the forground. I can't get may VCarve pro to come into the application box. any suggestions
On your Aspire button you have "Title" Aspire than "Content" 14 items - mine has "Title " Aspire than "App/File Aspire. Exe. Why is mine different? I assume the you tap the Aspire button on the default page it changes to the Aspire hotkey page.
Wheee!!! What fun !!!
Wow that's it's a great option! I have an old ipad mini that works perfectly for that. (I bought the Touch Portal pro version) Thanks for enlightening me about that. Would you share the vectric icons too? // Eric
Perfect! I can share the icons for Touch Portal too😊
@@LearnYourCNC Thanks! 😀👍
@@LearnYourCNC did I miss were you placed those icons that you made for the touch portal? or didn't you upload yet?
@@LearnYourCNC That would be awesome, Thanks!
I just uploaded the icons here: academy.learnyourcnc.com/stream-deck-button-download 😊
how did you make all the icons?
Hey great video and overload of information, which is good thank you. I was wondering if you would recommend this for a person with one hand? I am just getting into cnc work, I was an FDNY firefighter that lost my arm in a Training accident. I have vcarve pro and have been trying to figure out how to click and touch keys at the same time. Do you think this would help me? Thank you for the info and anymore your willing to share.
Hey Kris, I'm not sure how well this would be with one hand but I could imagine it might be easier to do some tasks.
However, Elgato(maker of Stream Deck), also makes a foot pedal that has 3 buttons on it that you can customize and I think that would work perfectly for your situation. For instance, you can set one of the foot buttons to hold the shift key while you are selecting multiple objects with your mouse. You can also customize the foot buttons differently for all your computer programs. You can find that foot pedal here: amzn.to/3WAV5qq and they also sell it as a package deal with the smaller Stream Deck 2: amzn.to/3vu7bWw
Another thing that I would highly recommend to you is a mouse with customizable buttons on it. I did a video on that here: czcams.com/video/Mps-Yhs_v_0/video.html The mouse would allow you to do multiple tasks with one hand. Just be aware the mouse is only made for right hands, so I am not sure which hand you have lost.
I believe the mouse and foot pedal would help you the most and then you can decide if you need the Stream Deck or not. I hope that helps!
-Kyle
@Learn Your CNC thank you very much. Great information and I really appreciate it. I actually seen the foot pedal when I went to your link for the stream deck. I will definitely look into that. I lost my right arm below the elbow. With that being said I was left handed prior to my accident so I already knew my difficulties living in a right handed world lol. I do have a gaming mouse but have not had any luck with programming the buttons. I should look harder but this cnc stuff for me is only a few months old. Thank you very much. Appreciate the info more then you know.
CaN YOU CONNECT THE STREAMDECK XL TO MORE THAN 1 COMPUTER
Are the Vectric Icons available from you? I want to play with Vectric and Touch Portal?
I too would like to try the touch portal because I have an old iPad that may come in handy for this.
I just uploaded the Vectric icons here: academy.learnyourcnc.com/stream-deck-button-download 😊
So do you think this can be used as a pendant for G-sender? For xyz movements and other operations such as setting xyz zero?
Thank you!
I use it for Openbuilds Control. Any program which has keyboard shortcuts will work.
Very interesting. Can these be set up so you have different profiles for the deck so you can have one for multiple applications?
Yes, you can! And you can have it automatically switch between profiles when you switch applications on your computer.
@@LearnYourCNC Thanks!
