Is there anyway to bring in a non vector reference picture into mastercam for tracing and other uses.

your awesome problem solved

I'm using a really old logitech mouse for now with no fancy stuff and that seems to be working. sorry wanted to edit the old post not make a new one. and not sure how to delete this one.

using a m705 logitech mouse with windows 7 64-bit and Logitech SetPoint Software. When Scrolling in and out with the mouse wheel it only zooms out for me as well. This does not happen on my vista 64-bit laptop and my xp desktop.

Thanks

well any quick ways to move everything you see to Z 0.0

wish I could delete this thread LOL man I feel dumb.

I'm dumb no idea how it happened but the line is on the wrong Z axis. Weird must have pressed something didn't even want to work in 3d.

no dice

for some reason when I snap my line to the points I have it doesn't extend correctly was wondering if anyone else ran into this problem and has figured out a solution. Here is a example file and a youtube video of what I'm talking about. attached is a example of the file I'm dealing with. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AyAZSRR-aE TRIMEXTENDPROBLEM.MCX-5

Does anyone have windows 7 with xp mode. Can you open Mastercam in xp mode and make a macro then run it in Mastercam?

tryed macros on my desktop which has xp and your right macros work great. I never use that computer though . I downloaded a external program to do macro's not nearly as good. anyone else use a 3rd party software?

Wow ill have to keep that in mind if I expand but for now I only have level 1 router lol. mostly flat parts. Thanks for the tip though thing looks sick.

I'm probably going to ask allot of questions on the Mastercam forums so figure I should give and take rather then just take. . If you like the video drop a reply.

really oh man . anywhere we can post a request for mastercam. I'm sure there busy on all sorts of stuff on top of that but I would really like to use this function.
