Gunther.....

I thank you for this add-on.

i shrunk my logo to 74x42 (3 letters).
it only shows up on wireframe with a few operations only.
if i have a solid on my screen and choose not to use a screen shot...it still does not display the logo. (very frustrating)
-
do you show the screenshot as well?
if yes...
large or small bmp?
wire or surfaces/solids?
-
Code breaker.....still have issue today?
did you save the file?
have you shutdown (cleared mcam temp file) then restarted?
These 2 steps solve alot of little crazy gremlins in mastercam for me.

Using X+, the tool bmp's and company logo only appear in certain setup sheets. (it may have something to do with # of tools or size of screenshot)
How can I set it so they always appear?
Tool bmp's not so important but nice to see. I would like my company's logo to always appear though.

All seems to work good now except for one thing...the tool bmp's and company logo only appear in certain setup sheets.

I just manually deleted all x+ files/folders then
rebooted. I'll let you know how it turns out.
-
no uninstall file there....not in add-remove programs either.
-
where do i uninstall x+?
It's not working right....I want to uninstall then reinstall.
(i like what it outputs)

I got it to work.....
I set my "max surface deviation" to .0001(was .001).....curves match surfaces perfectly.
FYI - changing the "curve chordal deviation" from .001 to .0001 did not work.
-
I am running into this issue right now. I import a model into MCX4 then create curves on the model. The curves DO NOT match the model.
I tightened up the tolerances/chordal deviation to .0001. (does not help)
One of our users still has V9 on his pc.....he imported the model then created curves...the curves matched the model perfectly.
Is there a fix for this yet???

During the last week I've had this error pop up 3x.
quote:Encountered an improper argumentOnce while in system config, once in toolpath properties....the other I can't remember.
Anyone ever hear of this?
It locks up mastercam.

quote:Using comments/Manual Entries, really isn't the best way to handle this.
Our "manual entries" aren't just limited to M00's or M01's....we'll place job instructions there which change with each job.
I don't understand how the following example would help me accomplish that.
If mi1$ = 2, “M00 (CHECK PART)”, e$
Else, n$, “M01”, e$
I wish that manual entry and operation comments were handled individually in the post.
It seems odd that I can't have a perfect post, I must edit something. I'll have to choose between editing manual entries or operation comments.
Thanks to all who responded, I appreciate you taking the time.

jp.....i spoke to soon, my "operation comments" aren't posting now.
any idea what could've caused this?
-
jp.....thank you
-
I did not.....those are "comments", I want to move where "manual entry" is posted.
( i take it as 2 different animals)

V9 and X both loaded on computer seemed to run ok.
X with X2 or X3 or X4 or any combination doesn't run so smoothly.
I uninstalled all previous vers, cleaned up the registry then did a fresh install for X4.
I beleive X2 was more stable than X4....but I must move on.....so I cut the cord to all past vers.
