X+ for X9 PC1

double post

OK. I just want to make sure we are on the same page. The following pictures show a million words.

 

The first one is my mastercam window and what is showing on my screen.

The second one is the output with large bmp on.

The third picture is the output with large bmp off.

 

So as you can see regardless of which I select, the image is still not right. 

 

Now on the 4th picture I have edited the headscreenshot size to 2000 from 600. 

Then the 5th picture is that same file edited to 100 from 600. 

 

By 4th and 5th you can see the image capture is still the same, it just shrinks or enlarges the whole thing rather than capturing larger area.

 

Rhett I tried your method as well with the adding of the lines and it still did not work. I think I'm better off waiting for Gunther to chime in. Maybe he knows what my problem is. 

 

If I unzoom Mastercam from fit to 50%, then the picture outputs perfectly.

 

 

Did you try using the Screenshot function that lets you select your capture and than click on tool sheet?

bump and question

 

Is there a way to edit the title in these columns?

 

[Thad]

What version of MC are you running, jlw? If you're running X8 or X9, this should help.

Any questions, let me know.

In case your browser does not accept scripts, you could also change the title via css.

/* replace the title "Tl Nr" with "New Title" */
/* th_72 is the css-class for the tool number title */

.th_72{
	visibility:hidden;
	line-height:0;
}
.th_72:after{
	visibility:visible;
	display:inline-block;
	content:"New Title";
}

I am stil trying to get the logo to change for the excell format. I have searched the form at least  a half a billion times as I was told "Please search the forum. It's been discussed at least a half a billion times just in http://www.emasterca...d-party-add-on/ this topic alone?" but I guess I am just not smart enough to figure it out. 

Any help is apprichated.

When I go to create a tool list using x+ it opens up PRO-E instead of my tool list??  Is anyone else having this problem?  I have used X+ for awhile and it worked fine.  If I create a tool list using excel instead of html it opens fine.

Did you replace the default logo that came with the install with your logo file, named exactly the same as the one from the install (something like logo.png)?

It must also be a .png so .bmp or .jpg won't work.

[jim1960]

Yes I have gone to the X+ folder and place my logo in the folder named logo .png.  I have played with the size of the logo as I had read it had to be a certen size mine is 200x53 pixels.

Any other thoughts would be apprichated.

I've never used the Excel sheet so outside of the obvious things, I can't help you.

For excel check the template. It's inside the template.

Günther, could you tell me what number does tl length please?

[Greg Williams]

Günther, I was at a customer place last week, he recently upgraded from Excel 2007 to 2010, long story, anyway now his tool list bitmaps do not work when he uses excel tool list, works fine in HTML, is there a macro setting somewhere?

[ILv2Rk]

We just loaded X9 and updated to patch 3,

Trying to install the X+ toolbar I download the .zip file but as soon as the file is extracted into a folder and you put your cursor over it, the file disappears and is nowhere to be found.

Tried deleting it and re-downloading several times now but the same thing keep happening.

Any help out there?????

If you want to find out a class name, than you can always make a right click on the element in your browser followed by a click on "Examine element" (similar fuction is supported by almost all browsers).

Is there a way to save the HTML tool sheet so it can be edited and saved ? I'm trying to generate a paperless tool sheet that the leaders and supervisors on the floor can update and save it.

You can open a html file in MS Word.

Thad, I'm assuming Wes wants to output from x+, and convert to something that can be edited by someone else?

That's why I was thinking word.

Good call! I totally missed that.

 

I removed my other replies.

exactly, I like the layout from x+ in the html format. I would just like to be able to edit the field boxes. the excel output don't work very well. With over 100 cnc's and only 6 programmers, we put the responsibility of maintaining tool sheets to the shop floor

[Günther Massimo - GMCCS]

Which fields do you want to edit?

 

There are some tricks to do so ;-)

 

But you can't realy save the "edited fields" in that generated HTML file. In this case I use a PDF printer and print the HTML file to a PDF file ;-)

 

For example:

If you need an editable field in your header.

- run X+ tool list or setup sheet.

- in that dialog you enter in one row of the description "Enter Something"

- for the value you enter "<input value='your default text'>"

- generate the list

 

If you want to edit the tool table itself, you need a script.
