For some reason, in 2017, the debugger refused to be enabled through the advanced configuration. I opened the registry and found the key was missing for 2017 but was present for X9 (where the debugger has worked all along). I added the missing key as described, and voila, the debugger is now enabled. Very helpful. Thanks, Dave

So obvious. Why didn't I think of that?

Where is this? I can't find it.

I found right away that turning 'Screen Information' off and on again doesn't work for printing. The gnomon and the scale info are removed from the print preview, the level name is left in place. However, the level name is not printed. It's nice that the image can be moved and resized while in print preview.

Yes, I see that cycling screen information will turn them off for printing and leave the level name, which I am using as a title. For the most part, having the things on print outs is not as bothersome as having them on the screen all of the time. Thanks for your help. Dave

I tried F9, Alt-F9, Show Gnomons on the View tab, and everything else I could find before I posted. Nothing works. The worst part for me is these two useless items are ever present on my screen. They are a continuous distraction.

How do I turn off the dynamic gnomon and scale indicator? In X9 the setting 'Display Viewport XYZ Axes' would turn them off and on. There is no such setting now.l They can be turned off for printing by unchecking 'Screen Information'. Only when that is done, the level name is turned off too. I want the level names on my print outs.

This happens frequently in my work (mold building). Rarely does it occur while the machine is being watched, so using the jog/resume type of features is rarely an option. Determining at what point the program should be restarted can be done several ways. One can measure using calipers or other measuring tools to find a safe location to resume cutting. Some times I will jog the machine over the area and note the coordinates where the cut was interrupted. It is then a matter of editing the g-code. Any text editor will allow you to search and find the desired coordinates. Once they are found, it is only necessary to delete code after the preparatory codes at the top of the program up to the point you want to resume cutting, while paying attention to ensure that: 1. The tool and offsets are called out 2. The spindle is started 3. X, Y and Z moves are present, in the correct order 4. There is a feedrate called out in the first feed move This can all be done in less than 5 minutes, for the most part. Dave

Greetings from Wisconsin. I work as a toolmaker for the eighth largest injection molding company in the U.S., based in Germantown, WI. (#81 of Wisconsin's top 100 companies). Or is it #82? I have found Mastercam to be useful for less complicated work. I look forward to exchanging info here. CNC Software has had a BBS for years, but it contained little in the way of useful information.
