If you are using the Import / Export function you will only be able to bring in the geometry associated with the toolpath(s).
What you can do is use File - Merge. This will allow you to bring in geometry/ops from a file into another file.
HTH.
In Settings - Configuration, go to Toolpath Manager, and under the NC file uncheck the box beside Prompt.
As well set your NC file to "toolpath group name"
Has anyone got a solution to this problem. I've had a couple of customers who updated to X3 and are getting the message "Cannot create operation" when trying to perform an engrave toolpath.
To update the .tools, .ops, .defaults in X3 from previous versions, what I found usefull is to use the "File - Import Directory" to convert the files needed.
CNC pro,
When you are selecting the entities, are you sure they are arcs ? Anaylze the arcs, and if they are splines that could be the problem. I am thinking that when you are creating the curves from the solids its generating a spline and not an arc.
I have seen this problem before and I am thinking the solution was that those entities are part of a "group", therefore, you cannot change the colour unless you delete the group.
Hi CNC Pro,
One thing to check. Go to Screen - Combine Views. Make sure all arcs are in the correct view.
If you are still encountering problems with the block drill send a zip2go to [email protected] and we will take a look into it.
FYI.
I was getting the same error as Rick..
What I did to get the "$" font to appear is go into the C:mcmaxcommonfontsbox and extracted the files from the Box Lowercase X2 MR2.zip into the directory.
