Don't move it yet JP. Down under we only just got back to the office and opened up our X5 packet ready to install. Thanks for the helping hand. Peter.

If I import ops and include groups the second and all subsequent ops are named the same as in source groups. The first op in all imported groups is named according to the preceeding/other group. Weird. Editing is not difficult but it's annoying as I use import ops lots.

When I'm importing groups of ops, the first op in each group is assigned the .nc name of the previous group rather than the group in which it resides. Do I have a setting to adjust or is it my method?

Thanks Steve.

Outstanding.

X4 MU3. What affects the part-to-part distance when nesting toolpaths? When I nest to tool center or diameter (dia 9.6mm) with part-to-part distance of "0" I get approx 1.4mm toolpath separation. Peter.

Just had to look properly. Thanks all that's the solution I needed.

Pete, Thanks for the explain.

Can't find the Arc Multiedit Chook.

Thanks guys. I'll try both approaches.

How to edit multiple selected entities in the Analyze entity properties function? So I select all 5mm dia arcs to convert to 6.5mm dia. "Help" says use the propagate button. But that doesn't seem to work. I have to use the forward/reverse buttons to toggle through each entity and edit them individually. Got any suggestions?

Any news on a fix for this? I'm using X4 MU3 and still get this when importing ops. It's weird, the first op in any group is named acccording to the previous group then subsequent ops are as normal.

Steve, do you mean toolpaths that are referencing solids can be nested? Peter.

Hi Nick, Notice how any question regarding nesting is completely ignored here. I don't think many guys are using it. We rely on it heavily though, so any discussion on it's performance and functions is welcomed. I'm not sure about your question. I think I would do exactly what you did and maybe just manage the engraver depth within the machine settings. Pete

X4 MU2. Can anyone shed light on this for me? I've toolpathed around 50 parts with their own wcs in several mcx files. Now that I want to nest them I get a combined list of operations under one toolpath group heading brought into the nesting session. It looks like each op has been re-assigned a new wcs as it's been brought in. Why does this differ from what happens when I nest toolpaths within the same .mcx file? i.e. the toolpath groups keep their assigned wcs and are not combined.
