Block drilling

[George Gerhard]

Hello

I am noticing in X3 that when I go to my machine group click files then edit and pick on my block drill I see it for a split second then it dissapears. It seens the only way I can get it to stay visible is to shut down X3 and restart. I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?

Also I am curious as to how people are changing there drills in the drill block quickly?

 

Many thanks

I have never seen this happen. Is the blockdrill the only one this happens to? if so, might be some setup in the blockdrill that MC doesn't like. Are you running X3 MU1 or the original X3 version, if the later...then it could have something to do with it...just a thought.

thank you cnc pro

It appears to be my computer, as I was with another person the other day and did not notice this happen.

the question about the drills, is to change on the fly is easy to to change permanent requires editing the md/cd is this the only way to make the permanent change?

As far as I am aware of, Yes this is the only way to make a permanent change.
