Wish List

[Roger Martin from CNC Software]

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'

 

You mean like I'm doing right now in X8 ?

Drag 'n Drop any file type that you can do a File-Open on in Mastercam onto the Graphics area of a running instance of Mastercam (X8).

This Drag 'n Drop works just like as if you are doing a File-Open...

Anything currently in the database will be replaced.

If the current database is 'dirty', you will be prompted if you wish to save it before loading in the "dropped" file.

that's cool roger, can you merge files that way aswell?

To expand on the drag and drop, it would be pretty useful to be able to run more then one instance of MC, and be able to not only merge files, but drag and drop tool groups or operations. I make templates now but when you are digging through stuff it would be pretty slick to just drag and drop instead of making a template file.
