  17. Guys: it is like our old version of "cnc reg"... standard windows -vs- mastercam... I have seen this also... If it is set to Mastercam ... there is a huge delay...by setting it to "standard windows"... it opens rather quickly... In Mastercam "X" the 'cnc reg" is part of the control panel in Windows... I also recently had one that the customer wanted the "mastercam" (bitmap) but it was slow to open... I went to the hardware accelerator and changed it to "one click" above none.. it worked... Hmm dumb luck I guess... but it worked Hope I can help
  18. same thing... In X2 it's on the page where you fill in speeds/ feeds coolant etc.. just below it click on "force toolchange"... (just above the comment field)
  19. James: come on you know the drill... it comes down to return on investment... quick buck so they can spend it on other areas of development... unfortunatly it has been too long
  20. Perseid88 Mr0904... is maint release V9 spet 2004...get rid of it mcamvb... Hmmm by itself or in a sub directory.. you can most likely delete it

  23. Lars: Manual entry was changed quite a bit... you can copy the Pcomment 2 post block form the generic 3 axis mill post and copy it into your "v8" post... a couple of simple little edits and your on your way... if you have any questions, please give a a shout...
