Hi guys
Just a couple if X7 questions that others might have already figured out.
1) When I run Verify and My "Model" is a 3d box for the stock but a Full blown. DXF Sheet
With 50,000 entities etc. I see the whole mess in Verify ?
Even if I put the dxf on another level and turn it off etc.
Verify shows it. How do I keep from seeing it in Verifyand only see my Box stock model ?
2) Spin dynamically in MC / Pan with middle mouse & Spin in Verify Pan with middle mouse button ?
Currently I have Pan on Middle mouse button on in my .cfg but then I cant spin in Verify !?
Is there a way to Spin and Pan in both MC and Verify ?
3) 2D champhering , In previous and now X7 I get the
"Tool is to small to create champher, maximum Champher allowed will be generated" or something like that.
Not MC's fault but What am I doing wrong ?
My tool is a 45 deg cutter defined .005 at the bottom all the way at 45 deg to a .500 shank.
(As a taper cutter or a Champher tool I can't recall)
A .030 champher no matter what over hang I set the tool goes -.0025 deep.
I have been fudging my Z at the control for years.
4) In X7 when I drag drill points from one op to another I only get the prompt
" Retain depths or whatever" I no longer get "Merge or Replace 1'st" I swear in X6 and back it used
to ask me about replacing and merging also
Is there a setting I missed to get the full choice(s) prompt ?
Thanks everyone for any help
Tony
