Hello Chip, I was out all day yesterday, but on friday evening I found that I had lines on one of the layers just like you mentioned so I deleted them Im thinking that will solve the problem of hidden lines,

Sunday morning here and so Im going to check it out in LC and see what happens

How do I that?,  what is the procedure?, when I go into the drawing in autocad and turn off the holes and slot leaving just the outside rectangle there are lines not showing ie its not a complete rectangle, the drawing has 4 layers, but not sure how to delete the lines, the drawing has lines not joined and yet when I load the drawing into LazyCam it shows a complete rectangle, but there are about 8 little stubby lines all connected by grey dotted lines with extra half curves,
What a mess why cant things work for me, its very ex hastberating

Chip, can you explain how to delete extra lines in a autocad DXF? dwg that are not visible until I load into LC, I have grey dotted lines all over the place and at least 10 unwanted lines on a rectangle, even when I click on the blue line of the rectangle the blue line does not change to red completely the unwanted lines are interfering

My eyes are popping, I'm exhausted from lack of sleep, I must have spent on and off at least 12 hours trying to complete a simple DXF dwg from lazycam into Mach 3 D1.90.081. it consists of a rectangle 3"x 2" with 2 circles (or holes) inside the rectangle, hole sizes are .625 dia in the bottom left corner, and 1.000 hole in top right corner, I have 2 layers outside and inside with respective leadins and correct figures entered, the inner holes are completed as per G-code, but with the leadin for the outside edge  the leadin goes to the inside of the outside edge in other words the part winds up smaller,

I have tried many kinds of code, I have even disconnected the inner hole code and just programmed the outer cut on its own, but to no avail, I am at my wits end, can someone help please before I commit suicide, (just joking)

Hello Chip,

Thanks for the details, and I'm sorry I haven't replied before now, but had a lot of running around today,
10.45pm here and I have been playing with LC, but its taken me some time to decipher your descriptions in your message, (afraid I don't catch on too quick), its harder than I thought to master the program, but then its not the LC prog but me who is lacking, I think I'm going to like it a lot when I become more familiar, I haven't got to the samples you mentioned but will look at those tomorrow,

I'm just an old guy playing with CNC, and I'm sure I will be asking a few more questions before long,

All the best and thanks again........................Edmund........................

Brian,
     I have just downloaded Mach3 R1.90.081,...... originally I was using Mach3 R1.83.031, I have been playing with LazyCam release 2.64,

I load a DXF from autocad 2000 into lazycam successfully, but keep getting MachManip MFC application that appears with encountered a problem and needs to close, this happens every time I click reset origin to min, I have studied the Video which has a different screen and cannot understand what I'm doing wrong?,

Also I am unable to move or revolve or zoom the drawing?,

Can you advise if there is a users manual I can print out for reference?,
