  1. Mine was doing the same thing. Thanks for the work around
  2. lol. no worries I brain fart all the time. I'm guessing everyone else does too
  3. I don't know if you can click on a point in the chain to select it. I usually click inside the "Point" field then use my mouse wheel to scroll through the points until it gets to a point where I want to make a feedrate change, then click change at point
  4. You're probably right and I don't know what I'm talking about. btw, what do you mean "if I remember correctly"
  5. We tried high end Quadro's at work and they all had issues. We ended up returning them. I can't remember the model. just sayin
  6. Regarding the Xeon processor. I've used 2 pc's that have multiple Xeon processors and I feel I get better performance out of a Pentium. I'm sure some will disagree. I would upgrade the video. Not sure which of the ones you listed would be the best. AMD (ATI) makes a FirePro that is just as good as nVidia's Quadro (IMO) in case you want to look at additional options.
  7. Did you happen to update your video drivers?
  8. I have to be on the top plane to save the stl in the correct orientation. The "Current WCS" or "World Coordinates" doesn't seem to work. "Current WCS" is greyed out.
  9. At my work, we could not get nVidia quadro cards to perform correctly. I'm not sure what model the cards were but I know they were $600 a piece. My pc had choppy graphics, others peoples would crash when they opened mastercam. We ended up returning the cards and just getting cheaper ATI gaming cards and they work great.
  10. Hypermill is excellent for true 5 axis machining, but I know one of the local trainers. Hypermill is like $40k with SW. Full blown MCAM is much less than that.
  11. I just click the save parameters button
  12. I think both swarf milling toolpaths have cutter compensation.
