sheetcam pocket & contour combination

Post by jacala »

Hello!

I'm trying to make a certain part but I do not know how to tell sheetcam what to do.

I've got a DXF file of a 3d drawing I've made:

The contour operation is easy, but how do i tell sheetcam that it must remove the pocket?

Of course I could ad a few extra lines in draftsight but that is an extra program and extra step that is possibly incorporated in Sheetcam.

This is my way of solving it:

Is there a faster way?

I'm afraid there isn't any way of telling SheetCam to do this without changing the drawing.

Is there any way to change the setting so a Job Report will always display in minutes not seconds?

Go to Options->application options->units and change the time to H:M:S. That will display the time in hours, minutes and seconds.
