       try this,reboot-go to the mach directory look for a file called special driver double click ,you will see a  quick dos screen come
       and go.then reboot.i believe that will get it.

       try to wear out the OPTIMIZE button it is you friend.when you load a file hit the button,make one little change
       hit the button,make a offset hit the button,go to the _ _ _ _ house hit the button.and try not to move the drawing
       origin until the last move ,then hit the button.you will see a lot less crop circles.i would like to see in a future
       realease the g-code written in 6 place decimal rather than 4 place rounded.they are creating nice toys for us.

LazyCam (Beta) / Re: move to new layer

« on: August 21, 2007, 12:37:52 AM »

the left window where the chains and layers are.when you left mouse click a chain it highlights the chain in the display window.can you
put a right click that will  full zoom. and when you pick a chain you can zoom the chain only.and if you pick a layer it will only zoom
that layer.

thanks bill

        can you also do a right click zoom in the project window, so that when you zoom a layer or a chain the selection
       will be as large as it can get in the display window and hide the rest of the drawing.this will help when trying to
       clean up a dxf from a scanned image.

       is it possible to fix lcam pro so that when you use sel in box, that after you select your chains you can right click the mouse
       and select move to new layer.and also be able to do the same thing when using single/multiple setting.

thanks bill

           thanks for the work. your version does what it is suppose to when you flip it around.the next thing would be is
           for you to tell me how to set my lcam so it will post g02 with R not IJ .i can't get my lcam set where it will post
           like yours.the version is the latest 2.01.
