General Mach Discussion / Re: edge finding/2.5D probing
« on: February 24, 2008, 11:14:07 AM »
I tried your routines and they actually work. I had to do a little tweaking to get them to work without mach throwing up a few errors but after a little fiddling they actually did work.

A few suggestions I would make would be to have an option to offset the border by a selectable margin. This would enable the probe to get points at the zero plane. Or the border file could be combined with the point cloud to get those points. Also I think a good addition could be making the point cloud a g-code toolpath that Mach could follow to replicate the object just scanned.

Just remember these are opinions from an armchair CNC guy that just started probing this week! I just might not know what I'm talking about! :D

General Mach Discussion / What happened to the Auto Zero Tool button?
« on: February 21, 2008, 05:26:55 PM »
I just upgraded to Version R3.037 and got a nasty surprise! The button is missing and in its place is a button that reads- Close Mach3! Did I miss a setting somewhere or will this be a permanent change? I know I can get it back with a little hard work and a new screen set, but it was very convenient in that position. Thanks.
