  1. I have successfully created an Excel sheet that pulls in XML data by using the mapping feature under developer in Excel. So how it works is when I run the ActiveReport it creates an XML file and a bogus setup sheet. I then go to my excel sheet that I have fully customized to our liking and pull in the XML file that was just created and it populates all of the fields I need. My question is: How do I isolate the XML file? I want to be able to save it with a name that would overwrite the last XML file Mastercam had created. For example, always call the XML files "Setup sheet" because my Excel sheet will always refresh off of that file name in that location. That way the other engineers don't have to select the new file from the excel sheet; they can simply click a refresh button in Excel. I am trying to automate this process as much as possible. I would prefer a method that doesn't require actually creating an ActiveReport that we won't use. I was hoping for a simple Save or Export data as XML, but it is Mastercam so who knows. Maybe there is a 3rd party application to do this under Settings->Configuration->Toolpaths. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

  4. I am very new to the add-on X+ for Mastercam X9. Currently I have the X+ file downloaded and in the Shared mcamx9 file. I created a toolbar in mastercam with the X+ feature. When I click the setup sheet icon I can do everything but when I click okay and the excel sheet comes up, it is not the excel sheet from the template. It is simply a "book1". I need to somehow link the template excel file to the excel.template file. Do I need to move the .cfg files (setupsheet.cfg) anywhere out of the X+ file? If someone could walk me through the process of using this successfully to make a setup sheet, that would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
  5. I'm having an issue with scaling on mcx9, when I open properties for chuck jaws in my stock setup I cannot click on the check mark to confirm my changes, I also tried just pressing enter to confirm my changes and that doesn't work either. I can move the window around the screen but I cant resize it. The computer I am using is a Lenovo thinkpad p51 running windows 10, the display is 4K however I am using a LG 1080p monitor instead of the built in screen.

  7. Looking for advise from those that have installed and run X9 through the latest versions of Mastercam. We have maintenance to that is not issue here. My question is what kind of resource usage-requirement have you seen in latest versions compared to X9? we are currently on X9 and running a xeon 2gig processor, 16 gig ram and turtle slow hard drive. quadro 600 vid. card. I am having a real hard time watching the crunch times as it is so am reluctant to upgrade software at this time. hardware upgrade is out of the question at this point argh. 5 axis complex surfacing. what are others thoughts. TIA Doug
