  1. The stock is rectangle, this is a glitch in the 2023 beta its placing a diameter for stock instead of the part shown Just a fyi thanks
  2. 2023 stock setup error on verify, it shows rectangle stock as round This is what it looks like when it does run
  3. First of all This is not a rant, These are facts. All these have been sent and confirmed with prism tech support. Yes there are problems with X7 to X9. I am still using X6 because of these problems. I have contacted prism tech support and they agree these are current problems and some were supposed to be fixed with the first update that came out. they were not. Some of what I program are large sheets on a router and when trying to use verify its doesn't show up properly. I have is settings for stock remain in verify compare that keep changing. The quality of the graphics are poor I am told that I have to use accurate zoom for it to show a clear picture. This has been a problem since X7 and they know it. Another problem is with chaining in X9. when picking one chain of a slot for example choosing identical or shape match in settings, it picks the opposite side of the chain of original slot and only a partial part of the other entities. This prism also know as a Problem. Nesting is now included in the X9 release. It is also a huge disappointment. after importing parts you cant chain them. you have to run a chook find overlap and even then picking the entities explained earlier it wont find duplicates so I would have to pick these individually. the nest I just programmed had 50 slots. I don't see the effort to correct the software problems and haven't heard from anyone on when or if they will be corrected. We have been a customer with mastercam for over 8 years. Conclusion, the releases are not usable for us. I cant accurate zoom a 5' x 10' sheet a piece at a time, and I cant chain 50 slots one at a time. I think the nesting problem speaks for itself. What is the solution from mastercam software developers. I read that other users are happy with the updated versions. it doesn't apply to what we do here at our company.
  4. What are the X8 system requirements 3141-041.Z2G
  5. Hello, Does anyone know how to keep defaults for toolpaths. When writing, for example a drill cycle for mill and I enter a negative R plane (retract) the next time I write a drill cycle the neg R plane is there by default. As you can imagine this will cause problems when the neg r plane is not needed thanks
