Alphabetical Layer Sorting
Posted: Thu Nov 26, 2015 3:50 am
When I am designing my parts in my CAD program, I name the layers with a prefix to help me machine everything in the correct order. For example, 1a Center Drill all holes, 1b Through Drill, 2a Mill Pocket, etc.
Occasionally, when I have a really complex part, I end up with a lot of layers. So, when I am instructing Sheetcam on each machining operation, scrolling down a long list of layers gets a bit painful. Having the layers sort alphabetically ( numbers first ) would be a real treat.
