  1. All you did was open up a mcx file that he sent you? It shouldn't change your settings. It will however look for his machine definition, so you would either have to install his mmd, .control and post and then load it, or load your own. You say your line width changed to thicker...did it change your default line width? Did anything else change? Did your background colour or your toolbars etc?
  2. Are you talking about editing your operation defaults? That can be done by selecting files under your machine properties, then selecting the options button under operation defaults. You can go into any operations you want and adjust the defaults accordingly.
  3. This is likely happening because you migrated your settings from X5 to X6? You may notice that in X6 there is a drop down menu when you select Surface Highspeed (and you can then select your toolpath from there). In X5 however, you could only select Surface Highspeed and would then select your toolpath from within the parameters page. That is what I think is causing the warning message. If the above solution does not work, you could ask your reseller to send you their mill_inch.default file and if you replace that with your existing one, you will no longer get that warning.
  4. You should be able to do it if you right click in the toolbar, select customize, choose Solids from the drop down category list, and then drag and drop the Face-Face Fillet onto the toolbar.
  5. Yes, you can change that in the operation defaults. Select files, operation defaults, navigate to the drill toolpath, on the toolpath type page select point geometry, right mouse click in the drill point manager and select sort options. Choose the sorting style you want as your default, then select ok and choose the save icon.
  6. What version are you running? I am on X6 Mu1 and it seems to always save on the desktop, where I currently have it pointed to.
  7. Hi Artsiler, Take a look at the store on this site. We sell a wide variety of training tutorials that are a good learning source. Many of the tutorials come with a Training CD. Pretty cool stuff. Let us know if you have any questions!
  8. Hi Jrygus, This is a bug that has been reported and a solution is scheduled for mu2. In the mean time, a possible work around for you would be to save the geometry from that file (using the save some option), it will not bring the frozen stock model with it (at least it didn't when we tried it in one situation)and then export the toolpaths to that new file.
