Title: Turn wizards not working properly
Post by: Kerry Harrison on February 27, 2011, 12:06:59 AM

Greetings,

I'm having a frustrating problem with the Turn wizards on my new lathe.

When inputting numbers into some of the fields in the Turn wizards the numbers return to zero when the enter key is pressed. Other fields in the same wizards work as they should.

This problem only seems to happen in the ID wizards such as ID facing and ID boring for example. All OD wizards work properly.

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

Thanks much,
Kerry Harrison

Kerry,
Make sure your mouse cursor is in the field when you hit the return key.
I just tried the ID wizard in both diameter and radius mode and works fine here.

Hi Rich,

Unfortunately that makes no difference. I tried copying the wizard folder from my other lathe computer where the wizards all work fine to the new one that's having this problem and that made no difference.

This really makes me wonder if there isn't an issue with my computer? It's about five years old and running Windows 2000. However everything else seems to work fine, except these wizards??

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Kerry
