  1. Never-mind... operator error! I'm running a laptop with a 3 monitor setup. The laptop monitor was closed, and the dialog box was opening on that screen.
  2. I've somehow hidden the backplot dialog box (the one where you select whether or not to display the holder, rapid moves, etc. Can someone tell me where to turn this back on? Thanks!
  3. When I do alt + arrow for rotate, it’s moving 5° every time I hit the arrow (18 clicks for 90°). Can I change this to make it move in 1° increments?
  4. That's what I've done in T19 ASSEMBLY.MCX-5. Just can't get it to work for some reason. I've attached a snip of what it looks like.
  5. I'm trying to draw custom tools & holders in X5. I can get it to work when I draw the tool only, but not when I draw the tool holder in too. 243-131216_0 (T19).MCX-5 is the tool only. C6C4-0032.MCX-5 is the holder only. I just downloaded it from Command's website and modified it. This is not a holder I'll be using in production... I'm just trying to learn how to do this so I started with an existing drawing. T19 ASSEMBLY.MCX-5 is the tool and holder combined. T19 TEST 1.MCX-5 is a file I made to test the tools with. There's just 2 circles in it that I'm using to verify the tools. I'm clicking on create new tool, undefined, custom file. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 243-131216_0 (T19).MCX-5 C6C4-0032.MCX-5 T19 ASSEMBLY.MCX-5 T19 TEST 1.MCX-5
  6. Do you have any suggestions for what I can do to troubleshoot why I can't get mine to work? Thanks.
  7. Thank you. I've got it installed and have found the toolbar buttons. All of them work except for sketcher. I've searched the forum and didn't come up with anything. Any ideas?
  8. I have X+ for X5. I really like the sketcher tool-path. Is this available for X7? If so, are there instructions? It seems like I had to do more than just run an installer when I installed it on X5. Thanks!
  9. I'm wanting to add a misc. integer to my post that determines whether or not to increment the tool life counter by 1 (M919) or 2 (M919 S2). Where/how do I define this? I've been trying to copy the definition for mi3 (sg28) with no luck. Thanks!
