Re: Plasma Z retract not occuring before XY rapids
Compare the onrapid sections in your 2 posts. The z movie needs to be on its own line before the xy move. You should be able to see how this happens in your router post.

Start about 4:00. Save as R12 dxf and select convert splines to polylines in the options.
I don't have SW so I can't test this.

Re: Going nuts over "Open paths" that are not actually open...
Yes, SheetCam doesn't work well with splines. If you can convert the splines to polylines you will have better luck.
As a side note, if you turn on path ends in SheetCam you can check your path for little white dots. It will help you find inadvertent open paths.

Re: Post Custom Boolean Option
The tool and operation custom settings with boolean values show as check boxes, only the custom post option doesn't if you set it as boolean.

Re: Post Custom Boolean Option
It should show a check like the custom tool options. I noticed this a while ago.

Re: Rotary plugin torch height
Sorry, I'm not sure what else it could be. I haven't used the rotary plugin yet. I'm sure Les will be along shortly to assist.

I think z zero is supposed to be the center of the tube, not the surface.

Re: Move edited posts to the top
Not often, but it's slightly annoying to sift through all of the ones I'll never need. Just thought it might make life easier for someone else also.

Move edited posts to the top
The list of posts is pretty long, so sometimes it's difficult to find the ones I actually use. I've been getting into the habit of deleting all but the ones I use from the SheetCam posts folder so only they show up on the list. This works until an update, and then they're all back. I know SheetCam m...

Re: sheetcam not accepting dxf
Are you inserting the dxf into a part? I don't think you can just file...open dxf files.

Re: Post processor failed
Not sure if it's your problem or not, but your file path is missing a colon after the drive. Should be F:\Julia1.tap

Re: update sheetcam
You can go to the website and download the latest version. Maybe this was a big in the older versions, or maybe there's something up with your internet connection.

Re: Development version shape library
I don't use shapes, but can't you just put a formula in the post to calculate the center of the shape and offset the alignment?

Re: Mill simulation not following actual tool path
Now that's what I call service. An hour from bug report to having the issue resolved. I don't know how you do it, Les. Kudos.
