I dont see any way to have the wizards call another wizard in such a modular way.

The problem I ran into in adding functions is the tightly designed screen graphics- that already shows a bit on the main screen where a couple of the later functions have different graphic styles, and are kind of squezed into place.

I am not opposed to adding other features into the main set if there is enough demand for it

With some of the new features promised for V4 it would be possible to do a wizard set like NFS, but with lots more future expansion possibilities. Brian and I have talked about this a lot, and many of the changes to the V4 wizard calling are because of these discussions, and similar topics with the MachStd Mill set. We will see how much can be done.

Yes, the Newfangled wizards are an extra cost, $50 option. You will be sent a license key that lets them save code. Without the license they work, you just cant save the code.

That page has not been changed for some time, but I will make a note to move the button up. Using the screen editor to fix it yourself is easy if its a big problem. I do my testing on a big screen, but do not maximize the window, I run it at 1024,768 which is the default window size.

The top topic in this forum is now sticky and contains the latest version.

Which pocket are you using? Is it possible you have some condition set that is making the code run a long time- like asking for 10" deep in .001" increments?

The only reason you could not return from the preview is if  Mach is still processing the code, as it does before a preview. Maybe you have found an infinite loop, cut rectangle had one, that was the fix in V2.85

Can you post a screen shot of teh wizard with all the DRos filled in?

I dont know of any problems like that. The return from preview is the same code in all functions, and I know that works well.

I just put up a new version last week, load it and see what happens.

This has been fixed in V 2.86. See the sticky topic at teh top of this forum for the zip file

What NFS version are you using? The preview page now includes both a toolpath screen and a code window. With that we can tell if you are not generating code or have a toolpath display issue.

The latest version is in a sticky topic on this forum. The version number will appear at the top right corner of the first wizard screen.

You are correct that the material DRO is the same as the X center. There was another duplicate that I had fixed. Im traveling now, I will correct this and release a new version when I get home next week. Sorry for the confusion and not checking your first report closer.
