stl file for verify

[foolsh]

if i convert my drawings with surfaces into stl file,i can't seem to be able to bring them in verify,for toolpath verification,it seems mastercam is not responding and nothing comes out if i select stl file as stock for verify?

Does it lock up on you? Does it act like you didn't select STL for stock? What exactly happens?

 

What version are you running? All updates and patches installed?

Make sure the .stl is positioned/oriented correctly. (If you've got the .stl at X20. Y20. and your part programmed at X0 Y0, you won't see it until you zoom out far enough, and then the tools won't touch it.)

 

This is unlikly since you're converting your current drawings, but have a look anyway. Also make sure they're water tight.

Mayhaps you could post the MC9 and STL on the FTP for some of us to try?
