Yes, I can post steps: Select solid geometry for a drill cycle, copy operation and re-select geometry for a new operation, an error comes up "encountered an improper arguement" then when I try to close MC it gives the "you can not close MC while a task is still active, mastercam:: edit geometry" error

CNC says it is not a bug, they said I am doing something wrong, wrong! It is your software

It is a bug I have reported several times already since X5

Trying to save a very basic part with 6 tools as an STL file during verify and it crashed MU1? Even X5 wasn't this unstable

MU1 is buggy, just like all other versions!

You can use a larger piece of stock to run verify with multiple parts, there will just be excess material in between them.

It is a bug, I posted about in X5 a month ago but CNC doesn't want to acknowledge that it exists.

Make that bug lol

I have 2 seats of X6 that comes up with the wrong toolist when I go to print, it will print out a list for a previous job everytime, had the same problem with X5 on these 2 systems. We have 5 seats and the other 3 work fine?

You can just add the command to the program #12001=0 etc. doesn't matter if you are using a probe or not

A cheap chinese drill ought to do the trick, you get what you pay for lol

It is a bug

I noticed the same thing, wait for MU1, 2, 0r 3 lol, please deposit another 10k for maintenance!

I have narrowed this issue down to re-selecting geometry for drill points, my original geometry will be solid entities and when I go to re-select new geometry this error will pop up. I am not in the middle of any other operation when this happens, this error has occured 3x during the last 2 days.

There seems to be a bug in the Level Manager, when going to change levels the window pops up and then MC locks up, just started today and only on 1 particular file

Haas: Disposable mill, run the hell out of them, then throw it out and get a new one

Apparently it is an X5 issue, no problems in X6

I am using the toolpath editor, my part is in the front plane, when I re-select a point it inputs the XYZ values of the point in relation to the top plane. I even tried to place the part on the top plane and it still inputs the wrong coordinates 90% of the time.

I posted on this a few weeks ago, except my error says "Mastercam:: Edit Geometry" it usually happens when I am editing solid geometry

Jim,

What seems to happen is I will reselect point geometry for a new part revision, then it will give me "Encountered an improper arguement" error, then I will get the aforementioned error. It seems to happen more often when I am using solid geometry.

I get this error on a regular basis when re-selecting geometry Error: You cannot close the application while a task is still active: Mastercam::Edit Geometry. They only way to close MC at this point is to use task manager.

Planes by geometry, Gview=T plane, Gview= name and save the current graphics view

I can't seem to find an English version for X4

I prefer the geometry to be on the face I am machining ie. front face B0 etc, I see people rotating the WCS around and it creates a real clusterfork of a program, do it right or don't do it at all!
