You should be able to set the end delay in your tool definition. This will make the torch pause at the end of the cut.

Do you mean using post.DefineCustomOption and post.ShowCustomOptions?
I just checked and it appears to work in both dev and stable.

The current stable version should still work with XP.

The plugin is for chip carving with a V cutter. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EfNP-O6V3IQ
It is not related to the V-carve CAd-CAM package and won't help you do full 3D milling.

Due to the way SheetCam stores values internally, sc.unitBoolean results in a numeric value that is 1 for true or 0 for false. This works fine in C++ but unfortunately Lua regards anything that is not boolean or nil as true.
To be safe you need to do a comparison:

The flat sheet option will make the rotary post just use X,Y,Z. It is a bit more CPU intensive than using a dedicated post but you probably won't notice a difference unless you are doing a lot of very complex artwork with thousands of moves. It only affects the time it takes to run the post processo...

Why did you need to comment out line 46?

Do you have a run-in-place LinuxCNC installation? At a guess you have more than one LinuxCNC installation and the CNCRemote make file is getting confused as to which version is being used. Try running Scanything from within a RIP environment.

Sorry, I missed this question. The post takes care of cutting speed and diameter compensation.
In my experience, Mach3's path planner works better if the rotary axis is set to 1 unit per revolution rather than 360. If you change this in Mach you also need to change it in the post.

The simplest way to add a menu is to use: app:AddMenu("/&My menu") or: app:SetMenuPath("/") app:AddMenu("&My menu") This will create a new menu on the menu bar somewhere between Options and Help. Exactly where it appears depends on what other plugins are loaded....

As long as you have SheetCam TNG then yes, your license will work with the latest version.

I just tried your post here and it worked. What version of SheetCam are you using?

Parts don't always include the drawing file name (e.g a copy won't) but something like this should work: function LoadFile(fileName) local parts = sc.Parts:Get() for idx=0, parts:GetCount() -1 do local part = parts:op_index(idx) if fileName == part:GetFileName() and not part:IsDuplicate() then parts...

I just had a look though my records and can't find a license under your email. However if your license was supplied by a reseller they may not have put your email on the license. I think the first thing to do is to contact the supplier of the machine to clarify if they were supposed to supply a lice...

DefineCustomToolParam should be outside of any functions. Code that is outside of a function will execute immediately when the post is selected in machine options, or when an edited post is saved. Having said that, even if you do have that code inside a function you should not get that error. I just...

Taking another look at the code I think you are right. However it has always worked in the past. I'll update the plugin for future releases.
