Evidently this is still a problem. I downloaded Scanything on the 13th, got my camera on the 17th, and Scanything reports the demo period has expired. I never got to even try to save a file to see how it looks. I emailed the sales at Sheetcam last Friday about an evaluation license, but so far have ...

I've found that clicking on the simulation button at the top of the screen also brings the rulers back.

I've noticed that happening myself, just never took the time to investigate what was causing it.

It sounds like you want to mount a projector above your table to project the sheet cam screen onto your table to see where the cuts will be. Most computers now-days are set up to run more than one monitor, so you should be able to do this with out adding any plugin to Sheetcam. You may have to set u...

When you are cutting a hole, you need to think about the geometry of what is going on. The plasma torch is not cutting straight up and down, rather the bottom of the flame is a little behind the top of the flame. So when you go around a corner, the bottom tries to short cut the corner a little bit. ...

Good morning.

I am going to assume that you are making a separate cutting operation for the holes, and that you are using an inside offset on those holes. If so, then try using no offset for the holes and set the lead-in on the inside of the hole.

Good morning, tell us a little more about your machine. I am assuming you are using a CandCNC controller, but what model? The more information you can give us, the better.

Thanks, Steve

I wonder if it's a permission problem. I've read that windows 10 has lots of that kind of stuff going on. You might try logging in to windows 10 as an administrator and see if that helps. You also might try running SheetCam as an administrator.

I'd say then that you need to cut the spiral into segments at each intersecting circle. Then you would need to put each segment and circle on it's own layer, so you can control the cutting.
