FYI Use keyboard Alt+arrow key to rotate, It work fine here. Let me know if it work for you. HTH

It happened on me occasionally. Win8.1 64bit pro with X7Mu1

It does not work on contour ramp, also. _________

Yes, Right click in Toolpath Manager > Display option. HTH

You go to Mastercam 9.1 > CNC Reg > ActiceX/DLL Components > then register the file "mcbitmap.ocx" again, It should fix the problem. HTH

I use it every days. 1) Blind holes: Dwg call up the hole depth to full dia. (shoulder of the hole). So we use it to calculate to the tip of the drill 2) Thru holes: how far you pass the thickness from the full dia of the drill __________

Thank John & Rob, But somehow It is not working on my X5 (work fine in X4). It is default installed. I didnot set up any keys. I am not sure anything else in setting ? WinXP Professional, service pack3, GeForce GTX 295 Best Regards

When you press "E" in Op. Manager X5, It is not working anymore. Anybody else having same issue or just me It worked fine In X4 Thanks

quote: i use 3-d contour cutting around cylinder (true circle) it ramp down from 0. to .3 at half of circle then ramp up back to 0. the code should be simply like this It is NOT a true circle from top view, That why you got lines only HTH

quote: Is the "keep this tranform operation" checked. No, It not I try it on X4 Demo & V9, It works fine.

Bump !!!

Hi all, X4 Mu3 When I use " Transform Toolpath & turn on "Create new operations and geometry". I always get duplicate operation (extra one operation) Is it a bug ? or I am missing something. It worked fine before !!!

Add this line in your post: if gcode$ = 1008, "(", scomm$, ")", e$ #Operation comment code: ***this is sections of my post ......I added this line to for manual entry. if gcode$ = 1006, scomm$, e$#Man entry code # ------------------------------------------ # Tool Comment / Manual Entry Section # ------------------------------------------ ptoolcomment #Comment for tool tnote = t$ toffnote = tloffno$ tlngnote = tlngno$ "(", *tnote, pstrtool, ")", e$ pstrtool #Comment for tool if strtool$ <> sblank, [ strtool$ = ucase(strtool$) "-", *strtool$ ] pcomment$ #Comment from manual entry (must call pcomment2 if booleans) pcomment2 pcomment2 #Comment from manual entry scomm$ = ucase (scomm$) if gcode$ = 1006, scomm$, e$#Man entry code if gcode$ = 1007, "(", scomm$, ")" if gcode$ = 1008, "(", scomm$, ")", e$ #Operation comment <============== HERE #else, "(", scomm$, ")", e$ quote: I wish that manual entry and operation comments were handled individually in the post. See this Link page HTH

quote: Thanks Pat. I'll see how it goes, but I'd prefer to use something that won't require turning on and off every time. This method would interfere with my "normal" chaining. With X4, It has new chaining feature, It will does what you want HTH
