  1. I have some vertical lines that are being offset, once there moved you can not see them but you can analyze them and delete, checked levels, repaint screen but the geometry is invisible. any help would be appreciated Charlie
  2. Thanks Eric What I am looking for is in the the create letter box, there is a parameter box the shows letter height, it defaults to 1., I would like to change the height default to .1 Charlie
  3. When creating letters in drafting, you can set the defaults in drafting globals. How do you set defaults for creating letters in true fonts? Charlie
  4. Thanks Glen, That was the answer. Charlie

  6. WE have a computer with level one mastercam, when in operations manager you go to the tool library to bring in a new tool the spindle always defaults to 10000rpm,when the tool is set to 5000 rpm. I t does that with every tool.They all default to 10000 rpm. any help would be appreciated. Charlie
  7. When going to convert a file to a dxf ,on the bottom of the screen files of type. Always defaults to dwg files. Is there a way so it will default to dxf? Charlie
  8. The select all was on and they all had same name still would not work. tried it smit's way and it worked. thanks to all of you for your generous help Charlie

    sp1

    I downloaded sp1 and rebooted , but when I press alt v, it shows only ver9, shouldn't it show ver 9sp1
  14. Hi,I am doing something wrong. When projecting 2d contour onto a surface the toolpath doesn't match correctly on the surface. It is on the ftp sight called project test1 Charlie
  15. Is there a help screen some where that shows the hot keys for cimco edit? Charlie
  16. both computers are set to the same settings, but they still come out different.
  17. We have 3 mastercams on the shop floor, and we all take drawings off the same server.Why is it when we all bring in the same print the colors of the dimension vary from one computer to the next? Charlie
  18. I should explain this a little clearer. We have two new seats of mastercam9 level 3 one with solids and the other seat no solids. With a server to save our files on. On the seat with no solids if you want yo bring in a geo file, you click on all files and you can get any ver ge3, this computer also has windows nt. The seat with windows xp and solids will not get a mc8 file if you clicked on all files like the other computer.But both computers are pulling from the same file, I hope this explains it better Charlie
  19. WE have mastercam ver 9, and in the mc9 folder we loaded in all mc8 files and all older ge3 files. The problem is when go load in a mc8 file we have the folder set for all files and it wont bring in the mc8, but if we switch from all files to mc8 files it will bring it in.I was under the assumption when you had all files open that it would also take a mc8,mc7,mc9 or any ge3.what am I missing. Charlie
  20. we just got mastercam version9 with solids a few weeks ago. The only mistake we made was not getting it much much sooner. With the help of the knowledgable people on the forum you can be up and running in solids in a relatively short period of time. Kevin

    color

    On the problem computer I changed the secondary color to blue, and drew a line. It looked green, but I saved it and brought it up on other computer the line was green on that computer also. The problem computer had ver 8 on and everything worked fine, now we installed ver 9 on the same computer and are having problems.

    color

    When I click color in the secondary menu, it doesn't matter what color I choose, it will only draw in the color green. And in the screen,config,system colors it is set on color red for geometry.But still draws in color green.

    color

    We have two mastercams ver9 level 3, when you change the color on one of them it works fine.It will draw in a different color other than the default. On the other computer it always draws in the default color even if you change color on menu. thanks Charlie
