Thank you Gunther for the update. The addition of the tp groupname was much appreciated. I am having problem though.I have several toolpath groups

in one machine group and no matter which toolpath group I select the first toolpath group name is the one that appears. Any Ideas?

I have just ventured into using multiple toolpath groups, and the problem I am having is this...

I have 3 groups, OP1, OP2 and OP3.

When I try to do a setup sheet for the individual ops I only get OP3 showing in the description block at the top of the page.

I have tried re-arranging the groups so OP1 is after OP3 but still only get the information of OP3 in OP1 setup?

Any one else get this? Have I missed something here?

So far these setup sheets have proved a time saving and paper saving so am well pleased with the software so far.

 

Andy.

It's actually the name of the active group. Just make the group active. Pull the red arrow in the specific group.

When I unistalled and re-installed the latest download it wants to install in my shared documents folder instead of sharedmcamX6 folder and when I try to edit the html document with microsoft word it cannot find the *.css sheets? I am sure it is something I did but does anyone have any advice. I unistalled an reistalled the previous download and everything works fine again.

Is there a way to get the .nc file name added in here?

 

and unless there's a way to do it that I am missing, a nice addition, I think at least would be the ability to type in comments about the setup.

 

Being able to navigate and insert additional screen caps as well, might be nice as well.

Gunther, for some resion sense X6 I have not been able to get the Logo to work.

 

Here is the header of my XSS.css. I have tried both local and internet as you can see.

I know I am missing something in front of my face.

 

 

/* company logo <div> - location and size of image*/

.LOGO{

position:relative;

 

/* size of your logo */

width:219px;

height:93px;

 

/* position of your logo */

left:8px;

top:8px;

 

/* location of your logo */

 

local

/* background-image:url(file:///E:/pre-ppcadcam.png); */

 

/* internet */

/* background-image:url(http://www.mastercam.us/pre-ppcadcam.png); */

 

background-repeat:no-repeat;

background-position:0px 0px;

z-index:1;

}

 

/* company logo <div> - location and size of image*/

.LOGO img

{

border:solid 1px;

}

 

 

/* header container <div> - size and position */

.HEADINFOTEXT{

position:relative;

left:0px;

top:200px;

max-width:500px;

background-color:white;

}

You have to uncomment the line.

Remove "/*" and "*/"

-Progname is part of the parameters you can add to the list.

-Comments can be typed in at the header.

I am looking for a way to shrink the screen cap

 

The large bmp is really too big and the small is tool small, I'd like to get something "in between"

 

Looking through the css I don't see anything controlling the size of the bmp.

 

Is there a way to get control of the size?

John,

 

I've found that reducing the size of the graphics window in Mastercam also reduces the size of the screen capture. Sometimes I need to shrink it to a third of the normal size to get correct size & placement on the tool list.

 

It would be really nice to be able to specify this in the css...along with alternate colored backgrounds for the tool list like before! ;%29.gif

 

John
