  1. Don't copy and paste them either they get corrupted. How did this bug make it into 2019? I don't understand surely beta would have picked this up.
  2. I have a good clean toolpath. Then I change the boundry from outside to center and MC corrupts the Machining Geom
  3. Is anyone else seeing funky things with 2019 high speed toolpaths? I have a good high speed parallel tool path, then I change say stepover. I had stock set to 0.2mm. What MC does is adds a new set of mchininig geometry with stock set back to 1mm stock. The original setting 0.2 stock has no surfaces assigned.
  4. I'm having no luck in 2019 moving tool paths with the right mouse click. The only way I can move tool paths is cut and paste them after the red arrow.
  5. Well I finally got MC sorted. Big thanks to Greg Williams the Australian MC Reseller who pointed me in the right direction (regedit) Cheers
  6. Im working with QC on this. I still can not get 2018 to Launch Cheers
  7. I always use "one way filtering". For finishing toolpaths only I use smoothing shift points randomly. The biggest effect on toolpath surface finish will be your total tolerance. Set your arcs to Min 0.1 and Max 10000.
  8. Running Nvidia Quadro P2000 2018 was running fine I installed 2019 and now 2018 will not launch I have sent an email to QC.
  9. When a backup file in 2019 is made it adds a 2018 icon to the file in windows explorer Are you guys getting a MC 2019 icon on your 2019 files?
  10. Tried that but 2018 will not launch
  11. This is what I get when trying to start 2018 after installing 2019
  12. I dont understand where to get the OP defaults from? Cheers
  13. OP defaults for each machine def?
  14. I dont understand why things that worked get broken when they release new software. Surely a Beta tester would have seen this.
  15. In 2019 I had a 2D HS dynamic toolpath I copied it twice and reselcted new geometry in the two copied toolpaths. The depths in the copied toolpaths changed?
  16. I tried everything uninstalled 2018 re installed 2018 tried repair ect ect. When I start 2018 I get the dreaded MC has stoppped working and then the email promt to email MC. 2019 is working fine
  17. I had 2018 working fine then I installed 2019 from the web download now 2018 will not work.
  18. I bought a new PC this week i7-8700k 3.7Ghz 6 cores 12 threads + Turbo 64Gb DDR4 1TB NVMe SSD Nvidia Quadro P2000 5Gb 2tb Hard Drive
  19. I can not get Horizontal Entry/Exit Arcs to work for me with HSS Waterline. Actually I never have so I must be doing something wrong. I set Horizontal arcs in the parameters but I never get them in the toolpath?
  20. Whats the best way ask CNC software if its possible for a request? I'd like a zigzag option for Surface Area Rough https://www.facebook.com/cncdave/videos/1000276940137803/
  21. Hi Colin where do I find it? Cheers
  22. Material is P20 Hardened to 55Rc I need to cut the thread into the core (Green surfaces). I need to cut the green surfaces and I can not touch the red surfaces. I want to rough it with a 1.5mm Ballnose then I need to go down to a 0.6mm Ballnoe Any guidance on how to tool path this job would be greatly appreciated. It will be cut on a HAAS UMC 750 SS Cheers
