Hello,

I've got a morph toolpath that I used a .04" stepover value on for the first part. I'm now wanting to take it down to .02, and can't get mcam to process it. 

it gets about 60% through processing and then i get message ID 11521 - something went wrong during mapping - are input curves on mesh?

I figure it could process at .04 what's different at .02 or .01?

I'm using a solid, selecting faces for drive surfaces and solid edges for curves...

Anyone have experience with this?
Thanks

It's just one solid curve to one wireframe chain, i don't get the difference. if it were a few solid curves linked i would get it because the solid could have gaps on the corners.

also i don't know if it's that it's not seeing the chain as on the drive surface, and if so would i have to create a wireframe curve as well as surface from solid? what would be the difference?

I did fix it.. used approximate stepover instead of exact. Haven't messed with this feature much not exactly sure what it does.


Thanks
