« on: January 31, 2007, 05:43:21 PM »
first post.
i am having trouble relocating x0,y0 from the bottom left of a drawing to the center,if i need it there.
all other moves seem to be ok,pan,rotate,scale,resize and post g-code.i have the latest lazycam,i update
on a regular basis.loaded lcam on three differant computers ranging from 500 cpu 256meg to 1.4 cpu 512meg.
when go to move x0,y0 from one spot to another i will get windows error message,then lcam quits.
thanks for the help,drop a few ideas for somthing to look for.

Are you resetting the origin in LazyCam? See picture.

What version of Mach and LazyCam are you running?

I meant to ask if you could post the file you are importing into LazyCam.

thanks for taking time to look at this brett.

mach3 ver r2.0.035
lcam ver 2.00.032
i am licensed also,as far as posting a dxf,i have tried a simple 1 chain--- 2" circle with no pocket,
up to a 674 chain v carving, all dxf post code well cut well.when i load a dxf in lcam the origin
is usualy off the map thats ok,push the origin to min button origin jumps to the bottom left
corner everything ok.double klick origin to move to center local, windows error message,
turn off error message lcam closes.
i would have gotten back to you earlier but i had to go to work.

No problem Bill. Post the dxf file you are having problems with so we can download it and play with it. I want to see if I get the same message and how to avoid it.

Hi, Bill, Brett

This problem has existed for some time, It doesn't bother some computers, It has been an on-again, off-again problem for me.

There was a way in earlier ver to set it in the right # enter origin manually, don't now where it went, ill look back in ver's.

More Info, Chip
