If you want to find out a class name, than you can always make a right click on the element in your browser followed by a click on "Examine element" (similar fuction is supported by almost all browsers).

IMO there should be a switch inside the postprozessor e.g. enable_auto_workoffsets$ = y/n That could solve all the problems.

This was working fine in X7 and previous versions. But it's broken since X8. Now you have to do it manually, or with a chook (i can share it). The bug was reported with X8 and unfortunately it's still not fixed. This "Auto-magically incrementing of work offset" is indeed very dangerous. I don't even understand why this "feature" was implemented. It doesn't make sence at all. For a post writer it's not possible to detect if the work offset was entered by the user or created by this "feature" and therefore wrong (a crash may be the result). Its' like throwing ammo into fire. I've tried to explain that to CNC Software, but sometimes it's hard . Hope dies last.

You need to have proper admin rights. You may think you have...but you havn't Open "Command Prompt (Admin)" by right clicking the windows start button. Enter "net user administrator /active:yes" Retry installation of X+

Update to X9

For excel check the template. It's inside the template.

In case your browser does not accept scripts, you could also change the title via css. /* replace the title "Tl Nr" with "New Title" */ /* th_72 is the css-class for the tool number title */ .th_72{ visibility:hidden; line-height:0; } .th_72:after{ visibility:visible; display:inline-block; content:"New Title"; }

- make sure you have administrative rights - make sure mastercam is closed during installation - try to delete existing X+ files under the chook folder before installing X+

Roger, thanks for the code snipet ;-) Is there an easy way to create a default tool? Let's say i want to add a bullmill. When I add a bullmill in Mastercam, it get's its defaults from Mastercam. How can I get the same defaults with a chook? I tried to add a tool in X9 with the code above. It adds the tool. But when I try to select the tool in an operation, it crashes. I asume that I missed to correctly initialize some more parameters.

I think you have to assosiate HTM-File extensions with IE or Firefox. What you see is actually the content of the HTM-File...and it looks OK.

I guess the problem comes from the newer EXCEL version. My scripts inside the XLT-Templates are old and maybe not 100% compatible with newer versions. Maybe you have to tweak it. You can verify your screenshots here "C:\Users\Public\Documents\X+\reports\png". The screenshots are in this folder. Look if the size is correctly. You could also check the properties of your screenshot in EXCEL (right click->image properties). Maybe something is not set correctly for the newer EXCEL version.

Hi all, X+ for X9 PC1 is ready. Download - Support for new Tools (Barrel tool, Threading tool) - 'Stock' as parameter is available Attention: It uses the same configuration files & folders like in X8. So make a copy of your configurations before installing it or they may be overwritten. "C:\Users\Public\Documents\X+\*.*" Please let me know if anything is not working. Greetings, Günther

Added: taper angle. New video. link

This is actually a point operation...so only arcs and points are supported :c)

What do you think about this? Video Added: taper angle New video...

I've requested this long long time ago Indeed there is a need to have a feature like this. Just a switch in the circle toolpath would fit. Bottom to top ...and slot mills need to be supported for this.

Thx Mick

I've uploaded a new version of X+. Please try it. There was a bug with the tool list...if no item was selceted from the right list then it crashed. An old bug came back...

If you save under a different name, make sure that you copy the CSS file too. Each template can have it's own CSS file (in case of HTML). So, in case you use the default.template and make some changes and save it as mysetupsheet.template. You should copy the default.css file to mysetupsheet.css. In case of HTML output: mysetupsheet.template restores the dialog settings. mysetupsheet.css is linked (if exists) with the HTML page and used to format the HTML page . mysetupsheet.js is a scriptfile that is linked (if exists) with the HTML page. In case of EXCEL output: mysetupsheet.template restores the dialog settings. mysetupsheet.xlt is used as EXCEL template (if exists) for the EXCEL output. Hope this helps.

Just added the "assembly name" in tool sheets and setup sheets. Thanks Goetzlnd

http://www.gmccs.de/downloads/SetupX+_X7_en.zip X+ has a new folder structure now. HTML - Documents are located in .../X+/reports now. Templates for tool sheets and setup sheets have their own folder now. X+ remembers the last template now. New holder chook added. Get your holders from a DXF file now

very soon you can download it from my web side:)

I'm not realy sure what you mean. What should be bottom aligned? What should be center aligned?

...and you can use max-height and max-width to keep your screenshots in a reasonable size. .HEADSCREENSHOT img{ max-width:600px; }

The old way of inserting a logo still works too. You can copy your logo as "logo.png" to the X+ folder and it will be embeded into the HTML sheet automaticaly. This should be sufficiend for the Logo then: .LOGO{ float:right; } .LOGO img { border:none; }
