Here is the lcam file.
DXF was only single layer.

Thanks Brian,

I opened your dxf in ProgeCad and did nothing to it, just saved it as a AutoCad 12 type file and then opened it up in LCam.

I'm not having the issue you're having as you can see below. I think your problems with LCam are definitely with your files that are being drawn.

I totally disagree.
I imported this file in Sheetcam, Autocad, corel X-4 , mastercam, and visual mill.
All had no problems.
When LCam writes the Gcode for the profile, it's perfect.
just when I free rotate with the wheel of the mouse it gets funky.
Look at the pic below

Oh I'm not doubting you at all, Brian, I'm just saying that for LazyCam in particular, it doesn't like your files.

Not saying your files are wrong, just wrong for LazyCam - ;)

For some reason with ProgeCad, it works very nicely.

kns

uninstall that copy of lcam, reboot, download a fresh copy.
post your computer specs, and is your video card built on the motherboard.
