"This is a good question but because of the new interface it won’t work the way I think you would like it to. If you add the midpoint icon it appears in the drop down Not from the list but from the create point icon in the toolbar"
Windows sporatically will not allow NC file to be overwritten.
(Will not give permission)
It wont flag you,So you just keep sending the original G code to the machine and you Pull your Hair out!!!!!!
because you think you have lost your mind!

Found it!
Now to get it to stick?
Customize/Drop downs right/Menu create point/
Catagory auto cursor/Drag midpoint icon over to Create point menu,
It sticks there save mtb and green check.
It doesnt show up under Create /point/ flyout menu?
If it is gone
I guess I can Zoom in on the area and then look for the midpoint symbol to appear then
analayze the distance between the mid point
I just created and each end point(s)
too make sure it is truly the mid point.
Thanks Guys,
I have the Name game figured out but...
When I post I am always dead ended in the NC file
Not NC/Job 580/Core etc.
Do I have to pick,pick,pick everytime?
Are the coolant issues all solved in X Sp1?
Edit : My Posts are not the same.
I have to compare them tommorow.
It does work but only with post "A"
Thanks
Tony

Want it & just like before?!
Another round of Maintenance is Hanging in the Balance
I guess I will have to delete my old chain
if I don't want to see it while chaining over the top of it during an edit.
Thank you for responding
Do I have to toggle my comp's left and right
from now on and or Babysit my chain Picks
so there is No editing to be done anyway?
Also, Do I have to see my old Highlighted chain
As I am trying to rechain?
It is very confusing.
As I tweak away some more at X.
I would like to Start a new toolpath group but its greyed out?
The exsisting groups (From a v9 import)are not.
Also I would like my NC file to be the same as the Toolpath group "Draft angles 3_5" etc.
Not (In a George Carlin Voice)
"Machine Group 1"
Thanks
Tony
Does anyone know where I can find one of those
Portable Z setters that lights up when touch a tool off on them?
I tried google with no luck.
were still "Shimmin" on one machine.
I am hoping to avoid a lot of finish Z cuts
with this device.
Thanks
Tony
The answers here are mostly from MC users
and some are "From the Hip"
Not quite the Corporate sterile replies you are looking for.
Paul Decelles and Pete Rimkus from MC

G code,
No, I had too log that one over there.
I have identical settings as some others at work,
Only I share a Net Lic. with the owner who only uses it for undercut detection once a week
Thanks though.

I could have grabbed X ...But I know
I could get it done with less effort with 9.1 MR105.
I loaded the latest X patch today and will try it out after the Holidays.
I have 4 week deadlines on Prototypes that could Lead to Multi million dollar Production Runs.
I have been allowed, for the first time in Ten years too
"Bring the Key / Software home too program"
MY CHOICE 9.1MR105
I know what works Best,right here and right Now.

You can no longer by "Off the shelf" PC memory RAM
For The Hurcos ,They stopped that. $$$$$
Tell There sales guy
You want the Ram specs and where to find it.
They gave it to us.(Eventually)
You will Upload to the HD but then you have to load the Program into the controllers RAM.
If you plan on Surfacing Molds etc.
you will need more then they give you
