Re: Odd behaviour on first job loading

I'd suggest trying the development version of SheetCam. It does a few things to try to work around issues like this. Hi again, can i run both on one PC? I don't want to risk upsetting my normal install but really need to find a fix for this trouble. Yesterday it was really playing up and was loadin...

Re: Odd behaviour on first job loading

Hmm, thought it might be or the forum would be buzzing ;)

I am running Windows 7 in a virtual machine (parallels) on a Mac :shock:

Is there a specific setting maybe i should be looking at?

Re: Odd behaviour on first job loading

That strikes me as an odd graphics issue. When it does that try disabling then enabling one of the parts. Do the oddities go away? I've never tried that, just done it many wierd things happen... the material image/background disappeared disabling and enabling different parts make things 'move' abou...

Screen Shot 2019-05-09 at 08.58.51.png The parts are correct but there are two overlapping sheets and some parts are shifted or piled up i...

Thanks, i've just about got it all going now, win10 is a nightmare :)

It was part the shortcuts needed editing and part the file locations, your method pointed the way :)

Yes but i have multiple profiles for machines - i use desktop links to start the app with the -c option but I'm getting errors and it won't start. Win10 is not laid out as clear as XP so i cant just copy/paste the folders and stuff it seems. I also cant find where the machine profiles are hidden on ...

Easy THC off for path...

Is there a way we can get added a method by which you can select a path in Sheetcam and request that THC be turned off for the whole of that path? I am trying action points at present but they are not ideal when you eat the whole path cut without THC. I did create a duplicate tool with no THC but th...

Hi sean, I've just been messing with SC and i just cannot make sense of action points - you cant fit them on a lead-in so i put one just at the start of the path and told it THC off at start, length 50mm and THC on at end. All i can see is that its added two more action points further along and in t...

Not sure, i have never used them and will have to read up on it.

It might work though.
