Title: Arc wizard
Post by: geoff3881 on April 25, 2009, 05:37:17 AM

I wonder if anyone can help on a minor matter ? I have been using the arc wizard to cut a semi circular recess with a bull nose cutter. Everything is fine and I am working in the XY plane.
I now want to cut in the XZ plane and have edited the G code to do this and it works OK.

Question :- Can you get the arc wizard to generate the G code for other planes directly ?

Dont think it can, you could alter the VB to output it that way, you could even copy it all changing the VB and save it so you have two wizards.
 One other option may be to just have a VB Button that would swap axis.
