I don't fully understand your question. Does this give you what you want? Main menu, NC Utils, Def. tools, Library. Right click in the white area and select "convert a library to text." Select the library and you're all set.

 

Otherwise, perhaps you could give more information.

What i want is when i'm in job setup - tools -and rightclick mouse i can get .doc or detailed .doc file where data about tools is put into. I want translation about tool shape names.

(beacause our machinist can't speak english). That is in file called mill9.txt (where you can find all menues and comments....etc... texts). Mill9.txt file can be found in MasterCam root directory.The problem is that it's about 13000 lines long and some tool shape names (endmil,bull mill.....) are repeating.

I allready translated setupsheet.txt Mastercam rootapplicationssetupsheet.txt) witch is used in graphical setup sheet.Now i'd like to translate doc files for tools (next step for operations).

 

thx

2 things...

 

First, I don't think the entries in the dialog boxes on those pages are user editable. I might be wrong, but I think that requires a different compile.

 

Second, in either case, (here we go again) Contact your dealer and tell him/her about your situation. Mastercam is used worldwide and translated into many languages, so your dealer should be able to work out something with a dealer from another country that speaks the same langague as your machinist and get you a copy in that language.
