That should work... could you post your XML so we can have a look at your settings?

There is no way to turn thetool path other then setting the monitor on its side at this time

If you retro the machine it would not be that hard to add for you...


Thanks

I have been working on other code and didn't know that he was going to put out a new release I have it on the list for tonight.

Sorry about that

I will have to look into that 
The mouse wheel is not a bad one... we use the mouse wheel for other things so that is going to make it hard

yup your arc moves are no good... the Inc and ABS are only for the center points. Do you have a cad system that you can draw the point in to see how it works? There is a section in the manual that will tell you how to program the arcs. If you need more help I can do a search on the web and get you a few links too look at. This is not simple and most people use a CAM program and never have to look at all the nasty numbers

Best of luck
Brian

The first thing is that you should have the X pos in the sub...  you need to have a move to the start pos of the arc. this will keep odd errors out when you edit your code.

I am looking at your arcs now

Nope But if you get a Shuttle Pro or an MPG you can jog with them...
