Thankyou very much Thad for such a quick reply. I will look into all the information you've provided and see if I can come up with a solution. Due to our company being so busy it's not often that I get a chance to sort out problems like these. At times it just becomes easier to program through Mc7.1. However would like to get to the bottom of this for my own benefit more than anything. Thanks again I am very appreciative. P.S It is Version Mc9.1 that I have. Regards Rob Grose.

Just a general question to anyone out there? When cutting tapers of any sort on any machine is it the top or bottom head that moves indepently to the other. I ask this question due to Mastercams Backplot when I tell the program to cut an internal appature with a larger size at the bottom I specify Offset to the Right(G42) and Taper to the Right (G52). However in mastercams backplot it shows the shape at bottom being smaller. Any response to my question will be very much appreciated and Thankyou in advance

I have recently upgraded from Wire Mc7 to Mc9. I am having problems with posting from Mc9. Eg1. If I program a round hole with the start point being the origin one of the first commands in my post is G92 X0,Y0. Eg2. If I program a round hole with the start point being X5.00,Y0 the first command becomes G92 X5.00,Y0. However because my machines dont have automatic wire feed I am manually pitching between appatures. Therefore would prefer the values to be X0,Y0. Is this a mastercam function that I can select wilst programming or a posting problem. I thank those in advance of any sort of feed back they can provide, it will be greatly appreciated.
