Title: Lazy Cam 2
Post by: brand468 on May 12, 2006, 07:18:54 AM
Hi Brian,

I have some trouble with Lazycam 2.0 and MachIV 1.90.036.
When i import an image and make an raster image conversation, and post to g-code im not getting any Z-values.
It is working fine in MachIV 1.90.028.exe release, do i miss something or is it a bug?

Hi Brian,

I have downloaded Version 1.90.052 from Arts page and i have the same problem with the included LazyCam 2.53.
Maybe Art forget to update LazyCam?

Hi Brian,

Downloaded and installed, LazyCam version is 2.54.
Loaded jpg image into LazyCam and the Raster XY and i get a "Bad character on line nuber #9"
It seems lika a "N55" is inserted, I edit it manual and then it seems to work fine,

Thanks Brian
Christer

Thank you Brian, :)

I wounder if you could consider to make the raster angle selectable in feature versions?
It seems like a angle of 30 degrees or so make the picture better looking (see http://www.vectric.com/WebSite/Vectric/pvc/pvc_index.htm)

Keep up the great work  :)
