Thanks John,
Basically I am trying to do it for 4 axis machining. I want to create the toolpath then, roll it around it.
Well I think I should have said that in the begining.
Hello, everyone. After a long time I guess.
I got stucked in a sort of modeling problem. I have searched the forum but didn't come up with satisfying answers. All I need is to roll a flat surface around an axis by 360degree, or unroll a cylinderical surface to get a flat one. Similar to Xform--roll/unroll. But instead of wireframe I want to perform this operation on surfaces.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanx.
Cadist, I tried that. It worked fine. now I can open images in mastercam.
But the problem I am facing now is the color of image changes when opened in mastercam. Also sometimes objects hide when background is image. Is that my display problem.
Thanks keith, for your reply but streamline is also a big software. Won't it be nice to have the image directly in mastercam. Just as shown above. Is it possible.
Sorry cadist, but no need to get so much attach. It was just my request. I searched the forum for this topic and there have been so many request for this. So I thought may be some beta tester would like to give a little hint.

Must be joking. you helped me in my 70 to 80% doubts cadist. I still remember you each time before putting my pc to hibernation.
Carry on

THE BEST way to solve your problems - install your customer Mastercam demo I don't think the client is intelligent enough to do a dynamic zoom in mastercam.
BTW thanx
and medaq really nice first post.
Starting with help to someone. nice website.
Thanx WTP,
But I am already using that resolution, I want to should be enlarage atleast 2 to 5 times than this resolution. So the customer can zoom at any small area of image.
Hello, everyone.
I was just thinking if it is possible to create a high resolution image of your model from within mastercam. So that the image itself can be zoomed for tiny details.
Right now I am making 4 or 5 images of same part at different position of model, but it is very difficult and requires more explaination.
thanx.
