Incorrect needle selection on 270, after starting AYAB with the carriage to the right of the left hall sensor.

[Adrienne200]

270 only. If you click Cancel, then Knit, while to the right of the left Hall sensor, AYAB appears to start up correctly, but it the "shadows", coping the pattern again when it shouldn't.

AYAB software version: 0.99.0-rc6
Computer/OS: Intel Mac, Big Sur
Knitting machine: KH270
AYAB hardware: Interface

Steps

1. Make sure that you have AYAB's prefs set to 270, and have flashed the firmware
2. Use any non-repeating image, sample attached.
3. First test the image by air-knitting the conventional steps, placing the carriage outside the left turn mark, click Knit, cross the turn mark, wait a moment, continue. This should just work.
4. Now, stop the carriage anywhere to the right of the left turn mark.
5. Click Cancel. Then click Knit
6. Move the carriage from right to left so that both magnets are to the left of the left turn mark
7. Take the carriage across the turn mark from left to right, wait a moment, continue.

Expected: It should start again at row 1, and just work. (Having ignored all right-left magnet movements)
Actual: It repeats the pattern twice.

it's supposed to ignore the right-left movement and

Oh, I know what this is. There's an early out for the 270 carriage detection because of the two magnets, it's probably causing problems.

Do you think this is a trivial fix and can make it into 1.0 or should be postponed?

Is this related to AllYarnsAreBeautiful/ayab-firmware#179

Right, this should probably be tested again.

According to @Adrienne200 s report in Discord, still not fixed
(also incorporating with AllYarnsAreBeautiful/ayab-firmware#207 )

I can repro locally. Digging

[clholgat]

Well, that was easy AllYarnsAreBeautiful/ayab-firmware#208

[jonathanperret]

Fix is included in https://github.com/AllYarnsAreBeautiful/ayab-desktop/releases/tag/1.0.0-beta3 but a round of testing would be nice before closing this.
