  1. Trying to figure out how to add select chain in the right click menu. Thanks
  2. Wanted to add another one to this, trying to add select a chain in my right click menu. Thanks
  3. is your reference for inspection or programming
  4. Thank you very much, didn't think about that one.
  5. I'm trying to add to my right click menu and it seems the analyze position is gone from the things to add to the menu. any ideas. Thanks
  6. my only comment is that it didn't do this in earlier versions. I get what your saying but its still still using the same lines. well ok.
  7. ok so on op2 on finish top contour 2d i have the retract set to 0.0 and incremental but when you run it it keeps going back to the top starting position instead of just a .050 retract. 1281052.mcam
  8. why is it that some times the 2d toolpath the incremental retract doesn't work right. it keeps going back to the first height on every retract.
  9. so is the depth of the hole to bottom of hole or body diameter for drilling. if its to depth then the drill tip is .012 for a .055 drill with 135deg and you can run a form tap within .010 to .015 of the body depth. shouldn't be a problem. at .175 tapping depth you should end up with a thread depth of .135-.140
  10. never had this problem until today but I cant figure out how to change the license level I'm using. 2022 Thanks
  11. wanted to thank the both of you guys for the help. it worked real good and I learned a few things I didn't know.
  12. thank you very much yep that works. how do you get the red area to show on the middle image.
  13. trying to do a dynamic contour on 3 sides of a part. left to right and there is a shape contour between. cant get it to work with a partial path for the avoidance. the description says it will do open contours so how do you tell it to do it. this is with 2022 OST1277375-2.mcam
