X2: really screwy problem

[beej]

I had 2 windows of X2 open at the same time. I just went to verify one of them and it was verifying the other one instead. So I went to backplot the first path which is a drill path and it backplots like a helical bore path (which is the first path in the other window. I closed both windows and reopened only the one I wanted to verify and same thing.

 

any help? this program was good at one time. It's already been run once I just wanted to verify the top side program with the backside program that's already been run.

MR2---sorry.

 

I was able to just regenerate the paths and they were fine. But that could be catastrophic if it would've happened sometime after verifying and before posting.

I have had this happen and it seemed to be a result of having the same nc name "default" for both files while tool paths are crunching numbers. Not just with mr2, this happened before also. Hope this helps.
