Hi Guys:
1.LT will not convert units on import?
Nope, but Ill consider that for next development cycle. At the moment its basically asking if the input is metric or standard. Many DXF's dont say
in any regard.
2.In tools you need to check the box that the defined tool is metric.
Don't just copy an Imperial defined tool , check that's it is metric, since LT will not do the conversions for the newly created tool.
You can use metric or imperial defined tools.
Yup.
3. The tool used defines the generated gcode units.
If an Imperial unit drawing is used and metric tool used then the gcode units will be MM. Note that the units are posted as a comment
" MM " Imperial " inches.
User should use consistant units for the drawing and tools?
>> Not sure about that at all. If you use a standard tool in metric mode, I suspect it simply codes the tool as .25mm or soemthing.. Ill list that for a fix as
well.
