hello, Is there a setting that keeps your geometry on the screen when changing views? The problem is when I change views, using Gview my geometry moves off the screen, then I have to use the fit icon to bring the geometry back on screen. I did look in the config. setting and tried a few changes, but nothing worked. thanks

I've been learning TopSolid Missler Design and cam, 5 axis programming now for about 7 months and I find it powerful with a lot of control, in tool path creation and entry and retract reposition scenario's. I've been using Mastercam for a few years now, and just started learning 5 axis programming a month ago when we got in 2 510 Haas Routers with the 5 axis Tri-Tech heads. So far so good...But I'm not sure if Mcam has those entry and retract reposition moves.

3-D Equal Distance toolpath for steep wall?

Eric, A finishing toolpath. Say in the case you have a odd shaped cavity with steep wall, and you want to maintain a smooth finish, the steep side of the cavity will not have as good of finish as the part of the cavity that not so steep. thanks -
