Oops, I forgot to email the files to you. Have to wait till next week. I did try to graph some old cnc files. Nothing thats been written in the last 3-4 weeks will show up on the graph screen. Files written before that time are ok. You said that RN has nothing to do with it, but the only thing I've ...

Jason, I use the F3, F5 (or is it F6?). Anyway, there are no flip ops. I get the green and blue screen with coordinates, but there is nothing on the table! Zoom in and out, move up, down, left, right. There's nothing there. Not since I upgraded to 4.64, then 4.66. BTW, I tried to revert to 4.63 and ...

Another bug I've found in both 4.64 and 4.66 is in regard to the graph screen feature. There's no graph.

Jason,

I'm afraid that one is long gone. I'll try tabs again tomorrow and let you know the result. I'll try to get a close up photo of the covernut problem, too.

Second the motion for multiple pass feature.

Jason, When I tried \"tabs\", the part was cut in one pass, but there was no tab left! The burr on the covernut is on the machined surface that contacts the collet. There are similar scratches on the collet, tho not as deep. I don't know if I'm over tightening. How can I tell? The one time...

New Control Nesting Features

Sheet selection and Off-fall rotation are a real help, but the best feature so far is the Outline cutting order. We run a job every 2 weeks that cuts 650 parts out of 40 sheets. From 2 to 45 parts per sheet. Some parts about the same size as the labels. Cutting from smallest to largest area takes a ...
