Title: Odd Issues with NFS Wizards
Post by: rwskinner on December 26, 2010, 01:00:28 AM
I have some odd issues with the NFS wizards were I select my material, then my tool, then say for example I go into Cut Circle.
I enter all my values and click Preview and nothing happens, if I click Post code nothing happens.  If I click cancel I get back to the Milling Operation Screens but clicking Exit does not return me to the main Mach Screen and really does nothing.

Operation List works, and shows a blank and Verify Toolpath works which shows no tool paths. Clicking on Exist still does not return me.

When this occurs, I generally have to keep swapping screens back and forth before it will actually start working correctly.

I upgraded to version 2.85 and I still have the issue and I'm using the very latest lock down version of Mach R3.042.040

All the Mach menu items work fine

Do you have a license for the NFS wizards?

Yes, it's registered and they work most of the time but sometimes I get into this rut and about the only way to get of the screens is to exit Mach3.

Can you tell if thre is any data dependency? Dos it only get into this state when you have some error like a zero radius?

The wizards really have no control of the button action- if mach sees the button press then it calls the wizard code,. Somehow mach must not be detecting the clicks. This is not on a touch screen is it? My touch screen often doesnt respond to touches, even though it beeps.
