Here is teh Job Costing plugins. Unzip it into teh Plugins directory then restart Sheetcam it should show up in the plugins.
input the specifc values for the material table and the Cost of units table .
Then apply a material name in your job to the material used.
When you run the plugin it uses a built in post to calculate teh cost of the part.

I tried out this plugin, but all I get is an error screen when I try to Price out my Job.

Hey,
Where can I apply a material name in my job to the material used?
Get the same error like SteveâŚ
Thanks,
Marcel
Try using the latest development version. I think that plugin is using a function that is only available in recent dev versions.
Yea, you have to use the development version for this to work.
Steve
OK, thanks, I wil try it tomorrow!
LG Marcel
OK,
I have try it, but i got a new ErrorâŚ
The only thing I changed, I copy the âdeâ Language Files, so I have the Dev. Version in German.
Hey,
ok, the Plugin work now,
but I had to copy the message.mo and edito.mo from the de Language Folder to the en Folder, so when I set the Language in SheetCam to English, I´ve got it in German.
If I use the Files from the de Language Folder, the Plugin doesn´t work.
Best regards
Marcel
Hi Terry
Tryning to use this plugin but I get an error as below:
Lua: Error while running chunk
âŚtCam TNG Development\plugins\SCJobCost\ScJobCost.lua:192: attempt to call field âShowâ (a nil value)
stack traceback:
âŚtCam TNG Development\plugins\SCJobCost\ScJobCost.lua:192: in function <âŚtCam TNG Development\plugins\SCJobCost\ScJobCost.lua:191>
It comes from this piece of code.
panel:Connect(ID_MCedit_BUT, wx.wxEVT_COMMAND_BUTTON_CLICKED,
function(event)
MCE.Show()
mainframe:Iconize(false)
end )
Sorry but I NO longer have access to a licensed SheetCam package. Teh machine we had that used it was sold with all teh hardware and software that went with it.
So without a usable copy of the software there will be no more attempts at plugins or fixes or updates for plasma based functions.
Sorry, (

Here is a copy of the zip file if anyone still wants to download it.

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 thatâs not happening.
It looks like the error is happening when the main program calls a sub file in. My guess is it has something to do with the update of the wxWidgets maybe? Iâve tried everything I can think of, but there doesnât seem to be a lot of stuff out there to read up on this. Or at least not that I am able to find. Everything I look up is rather generic with the classic âHello Worldâ examples.
Sorry for the delay in replying. Iâve been losing myself in the lathe plugin code. Lathe toolpaths are complicated!
The âgrid changedâ event changed in wx3.x. This should fix it.

Hey Guys,
would like to use this Plugin but it doesnât seem to workâŚ
i get errors when i press any button, could anyone help me with this.
Iâm using Sheetcam now for a couple of years in combination with an StartSH controller and works like a charm, only with this plugin it would be even better!

I installed lates SC TNG Developer, I was getting errors as posted above before was able to get the two editor buttons to function now and filled in some fields, but when clicking on pricing button i get this error.
I checked the path, GW user is empty, no folders. That is not my current user, I couldnât find where to modify the path.
Can anyone help?
I just did some experiments with this plugin and it appears to be quite broken at the moment. I will have a go at fixing it but this may take a while.
Les, thank you!
Hopefully youâll have a fix.
