no decimail points ?

[vulan]

Hi all!

i have the program with decimal points, now we need to run it from the the other machine that runs without it.(No decimal, absolute, four trailing).Any one knows if any editor can do it?

i can't re-post the program because it was made from the other cad software.

 

Thank you very much.

p/s:sorry if i this question already asked, but i can't find it.

Well we need a little more information.

 

#1 What version are you running?

 

#2 Do you know how to modify posts?

 

#3 Have you by chance talked to your dealer?

Here's the trick.

 

1)Open the nc file in Mcedit.

Look in C:McX4commoneditorsmced.

 

2)Scale by a factor of 1, choosing 4 place decimals and choosing x,y,z,i,j,k,a,b,c..etc.

This will put in most of the trailing zeroes.

 

3)Find and replace 0. with nothing.

This will strip out the leading zeroes.

 

4)Find and replace . with nothing.

 

You will have most of the work done for you at this point. You'll have to manually edit your Q values and/or any other letters not in the scale dialog box.

Guru couldn't you scale by 1000 and not by 1 to get rid of decimals that way?

Thanks Ron.

 

Scale by a factor of 10,000 with decimal precision set to 0 looks like it works.

Thank you very much for your quick help.
