Cambam question
« on: May 15, 2012, 03:54:02 AM »
Hi

Question, when I draw a shape in Cambam using polyline, How do I determine its size? The tutorial video covers everything  to do with creating and machining it but not how big it is.

Are the grid lines 1mm? if so, what if I wanted to draw something that was 50.5 between 2 points for example?

Hope you can assist

Thanks

Al

Hi, patly answered my own question, yes, its 1mm grid lines. Can I change the resolution or is there another method to set a dimension between squares?
Cheers Y'all

Don't use CamBam's CAD so can't be of much help other than to say if you don't get a response here that you go to the CamBam site
have a look at the videos, manuals, etc and maybe register for the forum and ask there.

Select the item in the menu tree and click on its properties, there will be a list with height, width etc, just enter new values and press enter.
