After programming any of the wizards and clicking the Do it button I cant see a graphical representation of the shape I should be cutting. I get the green cut lines drawn as the code runs but there is no shape to see if I have programmed it right.
Is there a way of making this work?
Thanks

Hi m4uk,
i think this is an issue in .057 Whats happen is that the displayed toolpath is shiftet by the amount of the fixture or G52.
e.g. in G54 . When all set to 0 then its is shown ok. That does not happen in .062

If I swap to 62 will the turn wizards work OK?

I dont have an issue with 057 and the NFS wizards or general G Code showing in the toolpath.
Maybe attach your xml and I will see what its like here.

Do the wizards add a G52?
Regardless, I have just added a G52Z50 and again seems fine, see screenshot.

Just gone back to 057 and used a new xml
Put in 50 mm in g54 Fixture ( the same result like G52Z50 )
When you start the code You get this: ( see picture)
Do the wizards add a G52?
No. this was only for testing.

Not really sure what you are meaning by "Put in 50 mm in g54 Fixture " If you are meaning you entered 50 into the Z DRO then I tried that here and again fine, not sure where the problem is coming from.
