Just got X3 today, what is the best way to transfer my X2 posts to X3? I have not done this before..

I am trying to profile a face groove using a groove insert,also using groove tool path. I need to use the lead in and lead out but it is greyed out. Is there a way to activate this or do I just make edits to the prog?

Thanks

Just reprogrammed it the same way with no trouble

John,

I use the Analyze-Distance all the time with no problem, but I will have to reprogram this part the same as last time so I guess well see if it hapens again.

Yea, This sucks

mc X2 mr2 ps1

I have had this happen 3 or 4 times now, I will have a program almost done and use the analyze-distance and it wont let me green check out of it. I can drag it around and thats it. I dont have the prog. saved and the last time this hapened I had to Ctrl-Alt-Delete it and lost everything.

Could this be a bug or am I doin something wrong?

Cam, Thanks a lot

Ive been wanting to use custom tools for a while now. This forum is the best, I have learned more here than any book out there.

I wouldnt dare turn without them

Im back and I am still stuck, Still cant figure out why the tool doesnt show up on the backplot

The tool level is 110

Is this what you are asking?

My day is almost over but I will be back in the morning.

Thanks

Ok, Im getting a little closer. I have the tool drawn with the corect colors, in a seperate level, and saved it in the tool library. I have reselected the new tool regenerated it, and I dont see my tool or stock removed when I backplot it.

This is what I want but with a 25deg insert instead of 35deg

I have never used custom tool before, thought maybe someone could give some step by step.

Thanks Paul

I have found the custom tool page, but I dont see where you can select or change a angle.

Is there a way to changed the geometry on a 35 deg. insert? Im doing face work on a mold with custom ground tools and would like to change a 35 deg. insert to 25 deg. in MC. Or am I going to have to select a differant tool and lie to it like I usualy do?

Thanks Kelly

I got the email but cant seem to open it

If someone gets a chance, I would like to check it out.

Thanks

Yes, it was the stock..

I was just getting some quick geometery and didnt think about the stock

Thanks

hold on

Overlooked that one!

When I try to open the FTP site I get an Error that windows cannot access this folder.

Is that site down or is it my computer?

Thanks Mark
