New cutting rules feature will change your life

Post by Sampson Jones »

:D :D check this video out . You must download the development version of sheetcam for this to work . You can have the stable version and development version on the same computer , provided you have a sheetcam license .
Wow ! This was so easy to set up , now no more jacking with velocity , acelleration stuff . Now my sign letters are perfect .My machine worked best with the dthc left on at all times .

I have been playing with the development version myself too. I like the new ability to use square tube in a 4th axis. Now if they can just get the bugs out of it and release the final version I will be happy.

older post that i found while searching sheetcam rules: here's my question

i have the latest version of sheetcam installed. v5.0.17 and i run an older version in a different directory
when i open sheetcam v5 it looks the same as my old version.
i'm trying to set up the rules so i can make my thc a little more useful

this pic from the sheetcam rules video posted by sampson has a rules button in the tools box (red circle w/arrow)
it also has multiple P buttons on top, is this for multiple posts? (red circle)
that would be handy as i go from mp1000-thc to mp1000-thc-scriber and then to mp3000-rotary for my A axis

this is a screen shot from my sheetcam v5.0.17, no rules and only one post (bummer)
i've looked all thru the menus to see how to activate the rules and multi post buttons
anyone out there using v5?
