Oops, here is the zip file 

Edit:      The set file included in this zip file is the wrong set file. The correct set file is posted further down.

Here is what looks to be pretty much the final version. I have done some more buttons and some minor adjustment.

Zip file contains all background images as well as various buttons and the set file.

What happens if you cut say a 1" outside diameter circle in only one pass with say a 1/4" bit. Does the inside circle be exactly 1/2" smaller than the outside circle?

Next test, cut a 0.8" outside diameter circle in the exact same center as the first circle. This cut will of course be mostly air. Does the inside circle be exactly 0.2" smaller now than after the first cut was made?

Yep, "+ - 10" is the same as "- 10"

Here is the latest versions. I'm pretty much finished I think. Have still some buttons to redo on the toolpath screen though and maybe a few other small things. Some screens isn't as good as I would like the to be. Maybe I will do a redesign some places at a later time. I wont do more than the four first screens.

Any comments welcome, suggestions on things to do different, button text, any thing.

Yes, I noticed it. I had an image saved as an image button. I think that was the fault. Got it corrected and checked the scripts with the original set file. All good.

Thanks. I was lucky and got two images removed with MachScreen.

But I think I have messed up some VB-scripts for the edgefinder. I'll try to copy those scripts from the settings in the original set file.

Tomorrow..........

Mach Screens / Need help with problem with Screen4

« on: April 20, 2009, 05:44:43 PM »

I have got a serious problem with my set. file for the upgraded standard screen set.

On two screens I have by a fault inserted a way to big background image. I cant "tag" the faulty image even if it is clearly visible. I cant remove it. The only way I can work around it is to rename the image file. Then the image doesn't load when screen4 is started. However a new problem arises then. The size of the image is still somehow "working" in the background even if it is not laded or visible. This causes other objects to disappear behind the "phantom" image. I can on one screen come by this by clicking on "bitmaps to back". However on the work offset screen this approach doesn't work.

Is there any way to get into the set file to remove the reference to this two images? Who have made this program?

I have spent a considerably amount of time on this project. I have not any desire to start from scratch. Any help will be very appreciated!

Latest version of the main screen and the MDI screen. Moved some buttons, labels and DRO's mostly. Is well underway with the toolpath and offset screens also.

Background image for the toolpath screen is mostly finished. Some DRO's is in place as well.

Exercise helps. Goes faster now
