  1. All in good fun guys. I knew I would be kicking the Hornets nest on this one. Teaching would be great Way of meeting people etc. Its almost like the movie "Ground Hog day" here. (Been here Ten years)
  2. "Those that can Do. Those that can't, Teach. Those that can't do either, Sell". Flame suit ON
  3. I sent that one in They said I am the only one this is happening too. Not the only one...
  4. The coolant thing is logged as a bug. Mine resets to off when you close out of that page.(Still posts on though)
  5. WORD! Thanks everyone I'll Wait for MR1 and then if needed Demo Cimco HSM.
  6. Well two of my bosses just got back from the Makino open house in Detroit. They said they were told by Makino that Mastercam won't work well with there Highspeed machines because there tool motions break cutters. We have to use Cam-Tool out of Canada For $25,000. Whatever...
  7. Sh!t, Your out of luck...! Could you explain a little more in detail What your trying to do and whats happening. And Welcome to the Forum!
  8. Hello Is there anyway to Stay in my Command? Right now I pick "Pan" (etc). Then move my model or what have you. But Once I let go of my mouse button I have to Reselect "Pan" again to finish moving my model where I want it. Can I hold Ctrl down or...? Trying to use X everyday all day...
  9. Hey guys I have a lot of annoying "ghosting" going on when I am rubber banding from one end point to another. also In Verify the light is only shining on one side of my stock and I can't see my cut? it is a simple 2d top cut.... My card,settings and driver were fine all through out Beta. Would a hotter card fix this? X SP1,Oxygen GVX1 Thanks Tony
  10. Thad When I post some of my Feed rates are 0 It has been logged as a Bug. The Retract in rapid is checked and thus the feed in that greyed box says 0 , but its reading that box still and posting 0. HTH
  11. Hello I cannot get X too communicate Correctly with my Control. I have matching Parameters (Baud )etc. in my Machine group Control Def & my Post . But X still sends my NC over at some other rate. So my work around has been to send my X NC with my V9 File editor / Cimco Thank You Tony
  12. You can only sub program in Basic NC , Contact Hurco 1 800 638 1849 Tony
  13. "And it actually puts the graphic in the center of the sheet in portrait view (which previous versions would not do)". Can I get my printing back to Top center? All my set up sheets have the text on the bottom.
  14. 50/50 Too much work due in a short amount of time. I know 9 is bullet proof and there is No time for any mistakes.
  15. Your sinker will have to be able to "Orbit" in a circular motion (Sure you could Orbit every 22 1/2 x,y)too. Keep bringing the orbit out until the screw goes in. Fine thread = Fine finish settings on Cutting Parameters. Good Luck
  16. I have my coolant "Air" enabled everywhere But My Tool/edit/parameter /coolant has it Grayed out-disabled. (I have use tools,peck and coolant on) Does anyone know where how I can change this? Thanks Tony
  17. Roger In V9 I could pick contour (Toolpath) Then when I went to Chain I could Hit F8 etc. and "step out" of the contour dialogue create a line then step back into contour and chain it. In X I can get out to create the line but once I accept the line My contour toolpath box closes out...
  18. Can I Create Geometry while I am in Toolpath Like V9 or is that gone? Thanks Tony
  19. Its in X "ops default" open it With X. Change it there. If you change it in ops mill inch default it won't stick either. Its there, I finally got it to Show up.
  20. How do I Stay alive in My toolpath creation i.e. In 9 I could pick contour Then when I went to Chain I could Hit F8 etc. and "step out" of the contour dialogue create a line then step back into contour and chain it. In X I can get out to create the line but once I accept the line My contour box closes out... Please Don't tell me I can no longer create Geo on the fly while in Toolpaths
