Hi Guys,
I have downloaded the X+ for X5 but I cannot get it to work. Am I missing something in the set-up or config file
to make it work? I don't remember having this problem before in X4. When I click on set-up sheet in toolpath manager
nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated, we love this set-up sheet!

I'm trying to transform an id groove toolpath using translate toolpath. When I set my transform parameters for the 3 other id grooves the tool rapids thru the part at the beginning and end of the transformed toolpaths, even having a reference point in my source toolpath for the rapid start position. If I use the copy source operations it will go to the correct rapid position at the start of the transformed opp but repeats the original groove opp and after it is done it rapids thru the part to the machine home position. Is there a way to set a reference rapid point in the transform parameter page?
Thanks for the help

John,
I got it fixed, it was looking for the toolbar and there wasn't one so the error box came up. I went looking for the icons and noticed there were none so I deleted the tool bar from the list and no more problems.Color and text show up as normal.
This forum is great!!!
Thanks to everyone who responed !!

I did a search for the following problem with no success. I installed X2 MR1 AND X2 MR1 SP1 and got the error dialog box, reinstalled X+ and got rid of the error dialog box problem but the background color in the toolpath manager changed from white to blue and text colors and text sizes also changed. Can you edit these colors and text features somewhere? I cannot find it anywhere that I've looked.
thanks for any help you can offer

Tim,
Yes, it helped for all but the feedrate. My post is outputing an "E" instead of an "F" in the 2nd line of the G76 code. see below. The machine control will not accept this.

Any ideas?
Thanks for all the help.

Pete,
I get the same referenced memory error warning when I try to post a toolpath? I have read all the threads for this error and tried some of the suggestions with no success?
Any other suggestions?
