I made a Hotkey to take me into the CHANGE LEVEL MENU. SCREEN, CONFIGURE then the TOOLBARKEY tab. After the Hot key is made, change your active level to the level you want the blanked entities on and do- SCREEN, BLANK, UNBLANK, then the Hotkey (ALT-Q is mine) This will now bring up the CHANGE LEVEL MENU and all its options.

Does anyone have a 2d drawing of ducks? I'm looking to engrave some plaques and Ducks would look great on them. Thanks, Roecus

I'll send it off. Thanks for the input.

) As far as the patches go we just upgraded to 9 in JAN. and The dealer E-Mailed me some patches to install. (and I did) ) I do have a copy of the same surfs on a different level. and I do some time blank them when I need to clear up the screen. ) It usually only happens when I have allot of surface opps. ) "restore NCI on file get checked or unchecked" I notice it happening while I am using MasterCam not when I open a file. ) And I don't use "autosave"

I have a problem with surface tool paths needing to be regenerated without me changing anything. I will have a long list of opps. and the surface tool paths can be anywhere in the tree and I will open the opps. tree menu and there will be a red X through most of them. (only the surface opps.) These surface tool paths will be on different surfaces altogether. Thanks.

Thanks all, This stuff should give me a leg to stand on. Jimmy I will have my dealer contact you. I kind of think I agree with you James except for the lit part.

The company I work for runs Mastercam in the Mold shop and Gibbs in the Machine shop, they want to merge to one software package. And right now it looks like Gibbs is going to be it because it will program a probe to inspect the part on the machine. My question is, Will Mastercam program a probe? Its killing me to think that I might be running Gibbs, I've used it in the past and I hate the fact that it machines the way Gibbs thinks it should be done and not the way I think it should be done!!

What would I do if I wanted to have it start up more then one? Or don't I know what I'm doing? This is completely possible!!!

I just loaded the "wheel mouse dynamic rotation Chook" and I want to know if there is a way to get it to work when I start MC so I don't have to load it using alt-c.? Thanks, Dusty

I know this might sound like I'm afraid of change but I like the "Level" format in Version 7, is there a way to make version 9's Level format the same?

Thanks for the feed back!

Does anybody know what program makes .3DS files?

This could be a dumb question. But what does NULL or NULL TOOL CHANGE mean or do?

Im sure its the same, the books say i80m and mines on a Mori Seiki.
