I have driver ver 84.21. No problems as of yet.

Steve, I have the option to save a bitmap unchecked also, but can see a preview as a explained earlier.

Misread your post. What I did find was if you did a file open from my computer and did right click on file - properties - preview, this shows image of drawing.

In file-open dialog box, under the red 'X' button, the 3rd button from the right, should do what you want. It will show an image of drawing. HTH

Ashan, I was having this same problem. I did a search and found this thread. I noticed in John's screenshot that his drawing was in TOP VIEW. That works, it doesn't work in ISO VIEW, which was where I was drawing in. HTH

Don't check off NC files. Wouldn't that work? I don't use project manager. Just wondering.

You should've asked John first instead of wasting days and nights.

settings, config, files, uncheck the active box in backup files. HTH

If u would please. Thank you. I don't know what happenned, but I lost the layout of my toolbar. The toolbars were everywhere. I thought I had it saved but I can't find it. Then the way I set up my RMB is back to the default. Not a good day.

John, Could you do a screenshot of your RMB if you don't mind?

If I hit too many hot keys, my pc groans and growls. Sounds like Dawn of the Dead.

IMO In the above drawing, there should not be an apex point needed. Just chain the four entities.

quote: Try this. Leave the selection type at the default (it'll auto-select window, single, etc as you move the mouse around.) If you need a window, you're already there. If you need a single entity, you're already there. If you need a chain, hold the shift key down and click the chain. If you need a partial chain, hold the shift key down and click the first, then the last entity. This covers all of my selection needs except for chains with multiple branch points. I never use Vector or the other selection types. They're neat, but I don't have a real need for them. Have you ever been in a situation where you have to select a surface, for example, and you have to exit out of the function first because your selection type is currently set to chain? By leaving the default selection type alone, I have yet to have any problems. I can always select what I need. NICE TIP

Thanks John I see I'm not alone.

When editting parameters in a highspeed roughing toolpath, the integers and reals go back to zeroes. This does not happen in regular toolpaths. Is this a bug? Also, I just noticed that when I run it thru my post, it's not noticing the values I'm inputing. btw this is for a Bostomatic 12g machine.

Sorry, thought u were talking about moldplus.

X+ is an add-on that you need to purchase thru your reseller.

I got it. I had to click on the double disk icon(save as)in the lower left corner of the config page. Thanks everybody for your time.

Thad, I did just that, but it ain't still working.

Exactly. That's where I went. But then Thad said this: quote: You'll have to save your config file after making the change back....or it won't change back. Thad What do you change?

bellyup, I did do that. From the config it doesn't have what Pete said.

Doing something wrong. I did this: quote: A revisit here. I was playing around with the V7 colors chook but now I want to go back to X colors. Anyone no how I can do this. I came in this morning and the V7 stuck with my default config. Then I followed this: quote: Open up the Colors dialog and click on the 'Customize' tab. See the button on the right that looks like a curved arrow over a horizontal line (the tooltip says "reload system default colors)? That's the one! Doesn't work for me. I open MCX. Click on colors tab on bottom of screen. Did what Pete said to do. Then did what Thad said to do. Didn't worked. I then put another .dll file to replace the v7colors.dll in the default tab of Start/Exit settings. That didn't work. Is there something else to change in the config?

even better. THANKS

john, quote: What about translate and select your label and move it.Ver9 you can see where your going with the move. quote: analyze the label and click on the "123" in the analyze window, then drag.brilu397, Did what you said and found the button below "123" to do what I want. Thanks john and brilu397 for the quick responses.

In ver9 if you wanted to changed location of a label all you have to do was click on label and drag. In verx, this method does not work. Is there a way to do this?
