Wish List

[CEMENTHEAD]

Please add in a near future release...

 

(Under solids manager tab) add a Transparency slider for each solid.

 

maybe add the GEAR c-hook as a feature?

 

(BTW I'm aware its machining software but i'm pretty sure the god awful ugly drafting end hasn't been updated ever with the exception of TTF. )

[Newbeeee™]

FYI - If you look at blogmastercam extras, you'll see that CNC are after beta testers for the new solids interface.

^For this reason!

 

I'd love to see MC get more friendly for multiple parts, multiple workoffsets, and general tombstone setup and management.

Yes, Would be a big time saver!

Also, how about the ability to change the text color in the operations manager using individual colors. Some of my files have 300 operations and sometimes it would be nice to designate what operations are roughing vs finishing, and so on using different colors.

I have the "Named Views" button hot keyed to #3 on my Space Pilot. Won't work if you're changing WCS all the time, but if you're changing TPlanes all the time (99.9% of what I do), it works wayyyyyy better than opening the view manager. Push #3 with your left hand - double click your view with the right hand - and it's done.

Pretty much what I have set up. Everything we do here is HMC or mill turn so we never deviate from TOP WCS anyway.

1. Under the tool tab of the operation manager add to the right click to change assign tool number sequentially.

 

2. Add a feed rate button to slow the feed rate down on entry move for thread milling.

And please have a look on the enhancement request forum as there's a t o n of good suggestions there

It would be nice to be able to sort the views in the view manager as well.

now this interests me

I would love it if the level manager could be organized like the operation manager is where one could create a group like fixtures, then have levels within that group that could be expanded or contracted. It would work just like the operation groups are under the machine group, and the toolpaths are under the operation group and with two clicks they can all be contracted under the machine group. That would be really clean if the level manager operated the same way.

that would be nice. Right now I number my levels like this: All my levels associated with op 1 number 100-199. All op 2. Numbered 200-299. And so on. I know I'm not guna use a 100 levels per op but it makes it nice and clear to me. But groups like you say would be awesome

[Guess_who]

ok, I have one more.

 

How about be able to customize this menu. I hate going to hit backplot and I hit verify on accident.

I've been fighting that for EVER!

What I learned recently is to just left click the geo branch of the toolpath in the ops manager. Left click for backplot, right for verify.... IIRC

[Thee Rickster ™]

Here is one that would be very useful,

I have 3 other software here that can do it, and the ability has

been there for years.

 

Drag geometry files(.stp, igs, x_t...what ever supported) to the working area

either on a black open file or one you are working on.

 

would save more time then any other 'wish'

Nice trick. I'll try to get used to that.

[Müřlıń®]

How about the ability to bring in a tool assembly into your current view and have position options where the tool could go to the deepest point in the geometry....and warn you of holder collision all at the same time.
