Hello Les!

That's a shame but understandable.

Is it possible to make the jobfile on a unlicensed version and do the export to G code on my payed version?

The V carve plugin does work great in real life btw.

running sheetcam on 2 pc's

Hello!

I've bought sheetcam about a year ago and today I bought V-Carve.

Were gonna use is to cut signs etc but I've got a question:

Can I install sheetcam on 2 pc's? So that my colleague can make his own G code in stead of using my laptop?

When the machine arrives I'll start playing around with it and then buy the v carve tool. Can I find a manual or som...

After digging in the Mach 3 Plasma post I've found a line that helps a bit but surely is not good enough yet. I've managed to include the M05 and M03 commands into the G code, the problem now it that it is repeated every single command. I took this line out of the Mach 3 plasma post post.Text ("...
