I'm having a bit of trouble getting 'GetOpGroupDataInExternalFile' to run with success. Using X7, and attempting to read in an X7 file which contains Operations. The function always returns FALSE. dropped the following code into my Run Function: Dim FileSpec As String = "C:\TMP\TEST.MCX-7" Dim success As Boolean = False Dim OpData() As ExternalOpsFileData = Nothing Dim GroupData() As ExternalGroupsFileData = Nothing success = SearchManager.GetOpGroupDataInExternalFile(FileSpec, GroupData, OpData) Any idea what I'm doing wrong ? -
In an attempt to start MasterCAM x6 HLE about a week ago after not having used it for a month, the program crashed when it read "Reading key mapping file." I looked online, found others had luck with uninstalling, cleaning out .NET framework and the registry and then reinstalling, but this didn't solve the problem. Not sure what to do, I contacted eapprentice (provides online MasterCAM courses), but they were just as stumped as I was. So they gave me a link to x7 HLE. With high hopes, I cleaned out x6 and started up x7, only to encounter another crash when it reads "Running command line commands." So I go to MasterCAM support. Over the past two days I've spent a couple of hours working with one of their tech reps (who has been great), but now the both of us are stuck. So I come to all of you. Has anyone encountered a similar error or have suggestions? Things I've already tried: Uninstall reinstall Registry cleaning .NET framework cleanout and reinstall Reinstall to a new drive location Disabling all antivirus features Installing Windows updates Uninstalling most software installed since it last work (save a couple games and some Adobe software). General disk cleanup (through CCleaner and Revo Uninstaller) Thanks

Verisurf Tools for Mastercam X7 - this install is for X7 32 & 64bit. Here is a list of the new tools: 3D PDF – export your CAD model to a 3D shareable adobe pdf file. Auto Hole Axis – this tool saves even more time getting all your hole center lines all at once, also selects the hole surfaces so you can change colors. Capture View for MBD – this tool makes it nice what to animate view changes supporting MBD displayed items and Level states. Other useful tool included: Hole Axis - used to quickly get the center points and vectors Minimum Bounding Box - lets you select surfaces or solids and automatically calculates the smallest block of material in free space with options to lock the rotation if needed Hidden Line - changes surface model display for screen printing Screen Shot - takes screen shot and opens in MSPaint NotePad - used to add and save notes into your model Auto Flip Normals – used to automatically flip surface normals in or out on surface models. Power Select - used to select multiple surfaces with minimal efforts, select seed surface and it automatically selects all the connecting neighbors that are tangent or use the “V” hot key fast selection of all surfaces pointing towards Gveiw, this is great for organizing part separation. Once selected you can change color, level or anything else Mastercam can do with selected surfaces. Verisurf X Tools User ManualFree -

I was wondering if anyone has had this issue... Mastercam X7 SP2 seems to work fine on my 64bit Windows 7 workstation.. that is until I go to exit out of Mastercam - it then basically crashes after the "Are you sure you want to exit Mastercam?" message. It first becomes unresponsive then presents the "Mastercam Crash Reporting" dialog. I then get the "Mastercam X7 has stopped working..." message from Windows followed by a greyed Mastercasm screen that eventually closes. Checking Taskmanger, Mastercam appears totally unloaded from memory. Now in the end I do get out of Mastercam X7, but I do not think that this is the intended "exit" scenerio. <smile> Does not matter if I actually work with a file and post any code OR simple open Mastercam and then immediately CLOSE/EXIT... crash. I have also tried it running Mastercam "As Administrator..." just to see. Apart from the usual suggested uninstall and install, does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance...

This step-by-step tutorial teaches you how to create a tool database in Mastercam X7’s new Tool Manager. We begin by creating and editing a new cutting tool and holder. From there, we show you how to correctly assemble them and make further edits. Other topics include how to import one tool or an entire Mastercam library into the new database. You will also learn how to import a .dxf tool file (we use examples from Iscar and Sandvik) and then make any geometry modifications necessary to match Mastercam requirements.From $20 -

Does X7 verify shows threads cut on a lathe correctly? I see concentric rings. Bigger question. Can I cut a helical groove path on a 2 axis lathe with a groove tool? Feed rate would be crazy. The tool has to have a lot of lead clearance. I'm trying a thread path with a groove tool. Its close but verify doesnt show it correctly. I know the math for drawing true threads is is HUGE. I can make a form tool for the shape I need. Im just trying different ideas. You have to think outside the box to get this one to work. Think of a collied hose for a airgun.I need that shape for 9" or so. Without a form tool, I dont know if I can cut the profile with a groove tool. The start , stop points have to be on the money. Any Ideas I'm not seeing? Machineguy The material is clear plastic rod, 1.250 dia.

My boundary is set to the obvious diameter that you would guess here but x7 cuts outside of it???? WTF
