LC 2.54
« on: June 27, 2006, 09:41:56 AM »
Nice job thanks for all the great changes.

I must be doing somethng wrong, cause i seem to have a lot more toruble than others.

Found a couple of things that puzzle me.
1. once the Gcode file is in Mach 3 i cannot get it back in LZ.
2  Something is strange about the strainght leading option.  IT make funny things happen with the arcs.  Don't have the problem with arc leadins
3 minor annoyance - when working with layer command lead ins are turned on off every time you tab l across field.  I think it should require an input.

I've loaded a couple of tries on the same file so you can see.

Hi, Psid

Your item 1,  When you load a file in LazyCam you can  post your Gcode, leave LC open, minimize it, Run your Gcode in Mach3, if you need to change it minimize Mach3,  maximize LC make change's repost with a different name.

You always have your original DXF files.

LasyCam dose not load Gcode files.

Hope this helps, Chip

Sorry there is a command under the File menuin LZ that says "Load current mach3 file..." 
I assumed it was to bring the Gcode file back in if you wanted/need to "Tweek it"
I acutally thought it worked that way in a previous version but i could be wrong.
Happens a lot at my age.
