Post editor

[Leigh @ Kodiak]

Just curious, is there any sort of graphical post editing utility for Mastercam? I'm thinking something like UGpost for Unigraphics.

 

I'm almost certain that there is nothing like this out there, so is there anything that prevents a clever developer from making something like this?

[Randy Morton @ Clem Industrial]

Sounds like a great idea to me! Why, you could be just such a developer, Racerx! I would certainly use it, or buy it if the need was to be...

 

But on that thought, from what I have heard thru the contact vine, X3 is going to completly change the way the posts are done....thus making a program like in need of a very serious update to todays standards. From my contact vine, they said that the posts will be so simplified that anyone can look at them and understand what's going on.... but we'll see about that when it hits mainstream.

 

Good idea! Better get cracking to beat the next release!

Lies

[Randy Morton @ Clem Industrial]

Well, if it's lies then you should talk to the individual in question. I am merly repeating information passed on by the reliable source.

[Don S at Barefoot CNC South]

And new lathe enhancments also right? LOL

[crazy^millman]

Yeah like Sync codes.

[Don S at Barefoot CNC South]

And working canned cycles?

[Randy Morton @ Clem Industrial]

No, I dont think that was part of it, Don & Ron... haha

 

Off hand, I love the lathe enhancment list in MR2 btw...it was so long I almost missed it... *cough*

[Zoober]

Ron, if you got those sync codes, you'd have to change yer nic to "Crazy^Twin^Spindle^Multi-Turret^double-Bar-Feed^13^Axis^(not counting Y)^Lathe^Guy"

ROFL@ Paul.

 

Now you KNOW they are true. He gratified them with a response. j/k

 

Randy, between you me and the fence posts, one thing about "being in the know" about future development, it's ALWAYS best to keep things quiet for several reasons 1) things change - GUI Post Editor was due out for V9 - where are we now??? There's a lot to that. It's simple to say but hard to do., 2) devlopment priorities change, in other words don't hold your breath for anything. I hear lots of things before they happen, I think to myself how much I would like this feature or that feature but I know there's always a chance it won't make it into the next release so I don;t count my chickens... when I see it in Alpha or Beta, that's when I believe.

Sounds like someone might just be heading for a beat down.
