I'm using X2 MR2 & when I backplot the "finish part, 1st side" group every thing looks OK. It spots at Z-.07, drills to Z-1.219 then taps z-.25. -

Vector Raster The pic you have displayed (a jpg) is a raster file. If you remove all the coloring & shading from a raster file although it may look like lines, it is still a compilation of pixels, not lines & arcs. HTH

If you look at the Environment Variables window, there are two sets of variables, System Variables & User variables. I was just trying to say that you should point the TEMP & TMP variables in both sets to the folder you created on your D drive.

Create any directory that you wish to be used as windows temp directory. 1. Create a Directory under root eg: D:Temp 2. Right Click on My Computer icon from the desktop and goto properties page. 3. Go to Advanced tab sheet, you will find "Environment Variables" button at the bottom of the tab sheet, click it. 4. Set the "TEMP" & "TMP" variables to point to your folder. (I have TEMP & TMP setting under user & system variables just to be safe I would move both sets to your folder) 5. Reboot your PC. HTH

Print out the V9 to X function map in your MCX documentation folder & keep it handy for a week or two. You can also get a copy of the current demo CD from your reseller to play with at home if you can't take your hasp home. -

Anyone posting out Imaginary Tool Nose Number on Lathe???

I only mess with the tool orientation setup on the machines if I'm using TNR G41/G42. -
If I understand, you want to use multile of the same type of holder in different turret positions. If you edit the tool to your new number & then use the save to library button to save a copy of the tool with the new numbers & then cancel out of editing the tool you should be able to get the new tool from your library.
