X8 Simulator enhancement request and question


Thad

Recommended Posts

Enhancement request:

Can you make it so the name of the file that's being simulated shows up in the header somewhere? Mastercam shows the file path and name of the currently opened file at the top of the screen. When running the simulator at full screen, there's nothing there to tell you the file name and there's PLENTY of real estate for it. It's a good reference when browsing for an .stl file to compare to.

 

Question:

Say I select some operations to verify. I compare to stl, then realize that I forgot an operation. I close the simulator and select all of the ops to verify. When I go back into the simulator I have to reselect the .stl file again. Isn't there a way for the simulator to remember the .stl to compare to?

I know in X7 you can setup the STL file for stock under Backplot/Verify Options in the Operations Manager (haven't moved into X8 yet) so you don't have to pick it every time.
