Title: Can any Mach 2 screens or settings be used in Mach 3??
Post by: elalto on November 01, 2005, 05:23:34 PM

Hi,

I have Mach 2 setup and running real well and have made up a couple of custom screens for my use, now I would like to go to Mach 3 and wondered if any of the settings, configurations, and screens can be used with M3.

Thanks,

Marcos (elalto)

The simple answer is no.
You cannot import the xml setup file from M2 to M3
You will also need to redo the screens, but you will be able to use the original BMP, JPGs etc

Unfortuanately its a non comfortable transfering process.

What I did was continue to use Mach2 for my production work and slowly set up Mach3 in my spare time.

I'm just getting things set up in Mach 2. Would you suggest just moving on to Mach 3 instead ?

Go to Mach3 it is faster and it has better goodies :)
I  have not run Mach2 in a VERY long time :-\

Thank you
