Drawing Import to Specified Position

Hey Les, it looks like the drawing import to a specified position isn't working or I don't know what I'm doing again. I typed in a position, but the bottom left corner still went to (0,0). Tried several different times, positions, and DXFs.

Remnant Cutoff

Is there anything that explains what the settings in remnant cutoff under job options does? I have gotten used to and really like the explanatory pictures, but this dialog doesn't have any.

Re: Shape Library Toolpath Error

Well, I thought that exact same thing too but I went in and changed the directions of the lines on that particular shape in the shape code and it still happened. Well, I guess I should say it did not fix that particular job file after I edited the existing shape with the updated shape code. I haven'...

Re: Shape Library Toolpath Error

Hey Sean, Yeah, I found a problem with the code that generates the shape a few minutes ago. It appears to basically put a point at the corners if the corner radius is set to 0. A few of the other rectangular shapes with corner radii have the same bug. I just fixed them and I'll send them to Les to i...

Jobs and Profiles

Hey Les, Would there be any way possible to have sheetcam attempt to open a job file with the last profile it was saved by and if that profile does not exist then default to the default program? I really hate having to open a certain machine profile and then search for the job file instead of just c...

Shape Library Toolpath Error

Hey Les, I am seeing a problem again with some of the shapes in the library and the toolpaths not being generated correctly. When I first create the shape, everything appears to be fine. But sometimes when I save the job file and later reopen it or when I try to edit a shape that has a few duplicate...

Re: Manaully place/adjust holding tabs location

Nevermind.... i'm a complete moron sometimes. I finally just saw the "edit tabs" tab. There's something about posting a question that just magically shows you the answer sometimes. I've been sitting here 30 minutes looking for it, finally decided to ask for help, and literally 10 seconds l...

Manaully place/adjust holding tabs location

I'm having a brain fart again, can anybody remind me how to manually move/place/edit the holding tabs? I feel like I have done it before but cant figure it out now.

Re: Job Costing Plugin

Hey Les, I think I am going to have to call in for backup on figuring this one out. There is a bug in this plugin and it looks like the author no longer has access to sheetcam. I was really hoping to figure it out myself, but that's not happening. It looks like the error is happening when the main p...

Re: Speed/Feed Calculator

Well, nevermind the nevermind... looks like the file links are broken. I think you had to dig them up one time before for another plugin. The Topics I'm interested in are https://forum.sheetcam.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6880 and https://forum.sheetcam.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6762 . Sorry for...

Speed/Feed Calculator

Hey Les, you probably already have this somewhere, but how about a simple speed/feed rate calculator somewhere? Like when creating a new mill tool or operation?

Re: Leadin and Leadout properties

At the moment I'm knee deep in the turning plugin and completely rewriting simulation I understand Les, that is why I am offering to help in any way possible. Probably not much I can do, but I'd be glad to try. Do you start with a nested drawing or do you nest your parts in SheetCam? I am equally a...

Re: Leadin and Leadout properties

Hey Les, me again! It's been about a year, so I'm gonna start pushing for this again. Can we look back into the different leadin/out/overcut for inside vs outside contours? It's still just as much of an annoyance to manually change each start point or even to move stuff to different layers and do di...
