We only use parisolid in this shop but were have guys from a sister company that use space in our shop and they only use IGES. I ask them if they want me to show them parisolid but they do not like change. They have been using X4 for all these years and are fighting to change to 2022. thank for the help. I will tell them.

I have someone here at my shop that wants to output an idea file from 2022 and import it in X4. He is doing it but the names of the parts do not.come into X4. Does anyone have an idea how to get the names to come over with it?

I found it. I had the show associative geometry button enabled. Thank You

Where would I find the Show associative geometry button at?

I am having a problem with displaying my model when I click on a operation. So every time I click on an operation to backplot or to open it up to get to the parameters the model disappears. To get the model back I have to turn off that level and turn it back on. ANy help would be appreciated.

Our shop added a new sear of mastercam in our shop and we noticed a problem. When the programmer wanted to program a hole to be drilled he could not do it. The Peck cycle is grayed out and he can not pick it. Could this be fixed in the machine def or would it be in tune post.

Thank You That would be something Mastercam should work on

I created a toolpath using unified on a 5 axis machine. It was a round part with a boss on it and I had to cut -.0005 off of it all around. I created a surface and a edge curve on the upper and lower edges of the surface. I then created a dia above the part to drive my tool from that curve. I tried to enter -.0005 in the machining geometries offset and mastercam will not create the toolpath. I put it at zero and it works fine. Does anyone have any ideas why I can not machine to minus stock

I started having problems with the length offset and the dia offset in mastercam. When I tell it to be tool #1 the length and the diameter offsets do not follow all the time. Are there any more settings that I am not setting? Any help would be appreciated. I am drawing a blank.

I have been using Mastercam Demo at home to study. The demo just stopped working and gives me a crash report. Now I can not use it. Anyone have any ideas what it could be.

The Entity Attributes Manager is active. I got it. Thank You. The active Attributes manager was active but the box was not checked for include entities created when opening non-Mastercam files.

2021

I want to know if anyone else is having the same problem I am having. When I merge in a Parisolid it only wants to bring it in on level 7. I can set any level as the main level and it will always come in to level 7. Is there a setting that I am missing?

I do turn it on there but it will not save.

When I program the jobs on my computer I have been using view sheets to switch between the different operations. I like using them. I have another computer out on the floor with a seat of Mastercam and the operators open the program up and post and go. This way they can pay attention to what is going on. When we open the program out on the floor the view sheets will not work. I create view sheets on that computer and they do not save. Is there a setting that I am missing in mastercam that I am missing? Any help would be appreciated.
