Ocean, of course I can use Alt+O but, this is not
what I am looking for. I found samthing similar but not exactly. When You go to machine group
properties/files/edit defaults then operation manager is minimized in bottom left corner, so
CNC INC., could You PLS!! put that routine in to backplot and verify function?
JJ_8, yes, 5 axis machining, if You"ve got operations located on opposite sides, like top
and bottom; becouse mastercam can only create
5 axis toolpath in top orientation.
O.K. another bug
try this:
1. dock your tool manager and make it approx
3/4 wide of your screen (situation if
you have long comments)
2. select toolpaths to run backplot
3. start backplot and pause after 2-3 sec.
do not exit backplot
4. make your toolpath manager approx 1/8 wide
of your screen
5. try to rotate your model or geometry dynamicly
Hi Colin
If You answer this quastion:
why did You change from DOS to windows??
You've got my answer. Graphic is graphic and thats why we've got Mastercam X2
Roger Martin and all of You Guys,
if there is over 1000 pages of post referance,
do'nt You think is time to release graphic,generic
post and just include manual for that, 100 pages??
G43.1 or G43.4 is full 5 axis dinamic
cutter lengh compensation. For 3D programming
You gonna use G43 as normal.
You've got to enter tool gauge to tool register
and thats all.
Do not forget to change pivot point lengh in
Your post to 0. valu, becouse You are programming tool tip.
