you will have no chance with pockets or offsetting with broken chains. l-cam cant do the math.

i looked at the poly line, throw it it the trash can,dont ever do that again. bad bad bad !
use the zoom feature of l-cam. if you zoom real big and it seems to get stuck and wont shrink. go to the menu bar and click zoom and it will reset. then double
click the drawing and it will resize. connection size helps a little but that takes a bad connection and makes it a double bad with a connected bump. l-cam
offsetting and bumps == bad.

i took a look at the file SUPPORT TRIPALEX LINE ARC .using l-cam i zoomed in at a few of the chain junction points. attached are two views ,piece of a circle and a piece of a y-bone.
what ever you decide to use for drawing the results have to be perfect. l-cam will not compensate bad drawing. it will barf all over itself. these two pictures are good examples of
what l-cam finds that it wont like. the outcome will result in baldness and excessive drinking.good luck!

give this a whirl. after you have everything installed that you think should work.
1 shut computer down cold
2 reboot
3 go to device manager
4 uninstal all drivers like -sound - printer - com - basicly the scrap stuff
5 shut down cold
6 boot to cmos and reset defaults
7 reboot to windows safe mode using f8
8 check to see if all the drivers have been found and installed - stay there untill you get them all in
9 reboot

when you install the PP card , did you try to install the card in the last PCI slot. or the the PCI slot that is the longest
distance away from the CPU. the first and second slots usually have a video preferance.
