Yup, that is definitely a bug. To work around the issue for the moment you can move your start points away from the tabs. I will do some more testing to see what is going on.

It took me a while to find the bug but it will be fixed in the next release. Sorry it took me so long.

By the way why are you drawing the leadins and leadouts? SheetCam can place them automatically for you.

I thought I sent you a license key. This key will last about 30 days from now. Go to Help->about and enter this key in the box provided:
EDIT: I removed license code because it has expired.

The Mach3 plasma no Z is pretty much identical. If the code doesn't run edit it manually with a text editor. Look for this line:
N0050 G53 G90 G91.1 G40
and change it to
N0050 G53 G90 G40

Does it now work?

I have no explanation fro that one. Have a look at the debug log (help->debug log). Does it even try to load the plugin? I just checked the .29 installer and everything looks correct. Try uninstalling SheetCam then reinstalling it.

Sorry for the delay in replying. I've been away for the last few days. M03 is to turn the torch on. I assume your copy of grbl is currently configured for manual spindle on/off (Plasma cutting usually uses the spindle on/off to control the torch). What other errors do you get when you try to run cod...

As you are plasma cutting you will have to use a plasma post processor. The 'Mach3 plasma' post is probably the closest to what you want. Try that post. If the code doesn't work send me a copy of the g-code and tell me what line it failed on.

It should only do that on the material tab. I just checked and I see you get the 3D view if you right-click in the parts window and select 'Nesting' rather than using Options->job options->nesting. I'll try to fix that for the next release.
