sheetcam not creating code for big projects

[TROYcreated]

hello,

im new to this forum and to the cnc world. not super computer savvy but can figure out most errors.

anyways, i updated to sheetcam V6.0.26 and now when i try to setup a part with a long code, it just gives me a bunch of circles as if i dont have a license file(which i did purchase and install).. now if i do a small part it works fine. its almost like the program isnt taking the license.

i will attach the files and a picture screenshot of the error that i am seeing

That is not a license issue. I think it is a drawing import settings issue. Go to Options->application options->drawing import. Set the arc fitting tolerance to 0.1mm (0.004") and the 'Minimum segments for arc fitting' to 4. Now try importing your drawing again.

Ok I will try that as soon as I get back to the computer.

Also I was having an issue that the z-axis was not coming down to the cut height of .08”. It was only coming down to .20” and starting the cut. I tried adjust the settings but in the Gcode it was saying the cut height was at .2 as well. Is there a setting I am missing?

I'm not sure why that would be. In Options->machine->post processor, make sure 'Z zero' is set to the top of the work. If it is on one of the other options that would explain the offset.
