New Multiple and Complex thread Turning Wizard!!!

[ardor]

LOL. I had a look at it today as well as the 55. Will you deliver for that price? ($10.00) I'm in SC.

Of course that's the delivered price.... IF bundled with the 55.  Both delivered for $30K

Yes, the BITMaps go into the Mach General Bitmaps files.......not the turn bitmaps.

Revision 1.1 Of Quick Threads:

Added:
1). I added M6 for  tool changers, the M6 comes out with the Tool number.

Fixed:
2). Double posting M (direction and coolent) codes.

Proposed added feature if you think it would be worth it.
1). A button to make the "H" DRO the Same as the "T" DRO, (I don't) really know if it would make that much of a speed difference since the H dro is directly below the T dro.

hi Scott,

No joy.  Even deleted the files from all the other places.  Then downloaded the latest rev.  Bitmaps were then put in C:\Mach3\Bitmaps.  Still when I run MACH3 and select your wizzard the bmp doesn't show up.

jcdammeyer,

   Sorry about your lack of joy. I don't know why yours isn't working, I have gotten serveral emails from others that are working.
So, lets figure out why not you. 1st Are you using standard Mach install and directory path?
If yes then I have enclosed a file for you with JUST the bitmaps in them. Open the file, copy the files (3 of them), navigate to Mach3 then to Bitmaps, click on it (use windows explorer). make sure you see lots of little pictures (thumbnails) in the window to the right of the directory tree. Then right click into the standard/general Bitmaps Window (the one on the right with the little icons/pics), then hit the "Paste" option after you right click in that window. You should see your three pictures appear in this window.

The Wizard looks for these bitmaps in this directory path: C:\Mach3\Bitmaps

Let me know how that works for you, download files attached here.

Scott,
    Can you give us a screen shoot of yours? I don't know what is missing. Mine looks like Johns.

here's what I did to get the bitmaps to show up....
I created a new folder in the quickwizard folder, then
I collected the three bitmaps in the quick wizard folder and put them into the new bitmaps folder.

Then I transferred the quickwizard folder(with the bitmaps folder within) to the turnaddons folder.

Now I get all the stuff when I open mach3turn and ask for the wizard.

Hi,

What you say doesn't make sense.  If Scott's wizard is looking for the three .bmp files in C:/MACH3/Bitmaps then adding a folder called 'Quick Wizard' under Bitmap isn't logical.

What's the 'exact' path to your .bmp files?

here's another shot to see the turnaddons folder with quickthreads folder in it.
note the added "bitmaps" folder within that holds the three bitmaps that Sergeant Poppa sent.
...this should be all that you need...at least for my machine here....

ALSO, note the icon for the .set file...   the icon is assigned to a different program that also uses .set extensions...but I have learned to live with it...     as long as I don't click on the icon......

By the way, Scott, Nice wizard!!!

[jcdammeyer]

Yes!!!

Creating a bitmaps directory under the Quick Threads and putting the bitmaps in there works.

Thanks
