Trasform geometry in X4

[Jeremy Grigsby]

Yesterday I tried to use lathe stock preview to get a 2d profile of my lathe part at a certain state (by selecting surfaces and save geometry, 3/4 view.) It put the geometry on the screen, but then after i closed the dialog box and tried to translate part of it in Z, it would not move. I had to save my file, shut down mastercam, and open it again. It will move when I reopen it. Can anyone repeat? Also, X3 was fine about deleting geometry. In X4 when I delete geometry I can see ghost geometry in the select color when i zoom in or out. The only way to get rid of it is to close the level and reopen in again. It is really discouraging.

For the xform in Z, you probably had it set to 2D and not 3D on the bottom of your screen.

 

What kind of video card do you have?
