6.1.65 Suggested New Features

Post by David_Lelen01 »

Hey Les,

Just a few more new features for you to consider adding to sheetcam:

1. Add toolbar button to load a specific machine. (i frequently switch between 3 machines several times a day. It gets old going to Options>Machine Options>Safe/Load every time i need to switch machines.)
2. Allow multiple parts to be selected at once. (this is probably not too easy due to the nature of sheetcam, but it would be wonderful to select multiple parts at once to delete them. Like say i have 50 parts in a job and i want to delete 30 of them, currently i have only figured out a way to delete each one individually.)
3. As i saw in another post (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=8098) it would be wonderful to be able to tie the leadin, leadout, and overcut to a tool.
UPDATE:
4. Add a checkbox or option to default the "start at center of circles smaller than" to twice the leadin value.


And to follow up on previous suggestions:

4. Job Report optionally includes Pierce Delay and End Delay from tools.
5. Add screenshot of job extents to job report.
6. Tie toolset to machine (open a specified toolset with a specified machine)
7. Set decimal precision on job report.
8. (I should probably give up on this one but it would be such a huge time saver and massive reduction in programming error) Add a function such as OnInsideOffset() to be available to post-processors.

Thanks for your time and an amazing program!
