LazyCam (Beta) / Re: Offset not working right, V2.02

Hi, Art & Brian

LazyCam 2.02 is having problems with Arc's, It doesn't respect the arc's end point's.

It's very inconsistent, The view 4 posts up shows a fuel bracket looks good then shown hear, Way off.

Offsetting your Collete Spanner, Offsets fine sometimes, Other time's not.

If the Collete spanner works then the fuel bracket doesn't and vice-versa.

Just Info, Chip

Hi, Bul@bul.it

LazyCam is so lazy and still in Bata-Ver., Watch the videos above in tutorials "Video's".

Lots of changes planed, No time to write a manual now.

Load-up a Dxf file, It's not bad at all, A little buggy hear and there.

Just give it a try, Chip

Hi, Alistair & Noel

I think I loaded them in MM mode, Just trying to get the offsetting to work.

Could never get the spanner to offset properly.

The fuel pump bracket, The only way I could get the drill holes to work was to group the circles that I wanted to drill, Then put a Dot at the center point

and delete the circles.

Trying to go back in LC versions to find one that works properly, Haven't found it yet.

Lot's of Issue's with L-Cam.!!!!,  It's a Bata Version.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Split63

It's a command in your Cad Program, also called un-group, group, It turns line segments into one line/chain or object.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Split63

Give this a try, I Exploded it many times then Grouped it, Seems to offset now.

The In-Out's are backwards most of the time for me, also using .000001 for Setup, Connect line tol. hear.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi, Art & Brian

Still having problems with Arc's, End points not being respected by LCam.

Hears the Dxf and LCam files.

Using .000001 Con. load toll., seems best, In-Out's backwards hear.

Square outside offset above doesn't close upper right corner.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Van

The only way I can tell it's new is the "Check Hear" turns back to Blue, I download it and add a Date to the file name, (Mach3R.... 07 24 07).

Helps me keep track, As far as the .000001 it has something to do with load tolerance for objects, Helps with smaller objects.

Hope this helps, Chip

Hi, Van

Try the 07 25 07 update its much better.

I'm using .000001 in setup load options Connection line tol. setting.

In-out is still backwards hear.

In mill mode, Only having problem with outside offset Square not finishing one corner Radius.

Lathe mode seems better still having problems with Arcs. As mill improves lathe improves also.

Thanks, Art & Brian, For burning the mid-night oil.

Thanks, Chip
