Re: G code repeating over Image HELP ??
Zoom in on your drawing. You probably have a double line. This sometimes happens with an auto trace.

Re: Trayectory problems
Interesting how a different language could cause path issues.

Re: Possible issue with sheetcam...
Your plasma cutter should have a preferred cut direction for best quality. You should set SheetCam to travel in this direction.

Re: Precision and G code with 0 length
You can edit the post processor. Look for the 0.#### formats & shorten them to the number of places you need. There is also a rounding function that might help get rid of the 0.00 values if the formatting change doesn't work.

Re: Move overcut to tool setting
Hopefully you are successful with this request. It took me quite a while to get the leads settings added to the tools.
I don't use overcut, so I'm not sure if it relates to the tool more than the operation.

Re: Changing position of a new jet cutting tool
But if you switch the tool numbers and then open an old job, things could get messy. I know the job saves the toolset with it, but if you always use the default toolset like I do, then you will have the wrong tools. Or you could mistakenly merge the toolsets and mess things up. Just things to think ...

Re: Changing position of a new jet cutting tool
I believe they're sorted by tool number only. I've not seen a way to rearrange them without changing tool numbers, which could cause problems when opening old jobs.

Re: Identifying open paths
If you turn on path ends you should see a place that has 2 white dots close together. That is the ends of the open path. If you fix the issue in your CAD program by closing the path, the error should go away. It could also be a short line segment hiding behind a closed path border. Look for 2 white ...

Re: Identifying open paths
You're in nesting view. The crossed arrows. Switch back to selection view, single arrow. Some things don't work in nesting view.

Re: Rotary plugin and Macros within control
Guessing you will want them in the post since it will need to calculate the z moves for the tubing dimensions.

Re: Sheetcam wont open, need to revert back to stable version
Assuming windows is on your c drive, it should be c:\users\<profile name>\appdata\sheetcam. I think.

Re: Sheetcam wont open, need to revert back to stable version
The license is in a file in the settings folder. It's in the windows user folder, not the sheetcam folder.

Re: Can I omit cut lines?
Instead SheetCam always offsets to the right. Is there logic to the right offset? Does this have anything to do with the preferred cut direction for plasma cutting or milling? Does the reverse cut direction setting affect the open contour offset? I've run into this behavior when cutting open paths ...

Re: sheetcam Mach3 plasma.scpost
I'm not following you. You want it to go to x and y at pierce height? That's not wise. It raises to the safe Z height before doing the rapid move so it won't crash into anything that might have tipped up or in case the material is warped. If your macro does the reference move, it shouldn't matter if...
