Update im finding with a few training videos the transition doesnt seem like its going to be as bad as I originally thought

Some things seem completly gone like create line vertical horizontal etc other stuff seems same and better like trimming

Still cant find a way to delete all entites om sure theres something along those lines but its just day 1 and generally dont have more than a few hrs to myself

Save the beer and pizza.

 

Go to the Emastercam book store and buy the X6 mill level 1 hard copy book. It comes with a DVD that includes video lessons specific to the same 10 projects in the book. There's also an additional set of projects that you can do, with out the hand holding. The X6 Home learning edition also comes with the book. Going through these projects will force you to get familiar with the tool bars and their functions, as well as the latest tool path strategies that come with mill level 1.

 

"Still cant find a way to delete all entities om sure theres something along those lines"

 

Left click in the main view port / display area anywhere next to your geometry. Press Ctrl + A at the same time. This will select everything on the screen. In one of the tool bars up above there is an icon that looks like a pencil. Left click on that or press F5.

 

We can also go old school here. Go to the edit menu in mastercam, very top, second from the left. Left click then mouse over the select all option. Left click again on Select All. Go to the edit menu again and mouse over the Delete option and select delete entities. or F5.

 

Now send the beer to me.

RIch Welcome to the Forum.

You will find there is an option for pre-selection or section the option like delete and it will prompt for what geo that you want to delete.

 

sample create something on the screen the select a line to delete then pick the 1st icone this will delete that line.

 

Now start the process again but this time hit the delete key on the keyboard instead of the icon. just one thought.

 

the Create line option endpoints as stated on the phone contain 6 options including the Horz and Vert options.

 

Review the PDF called V9 to X funcations that were emailed to you.
