Hi there, wondering if anyone knows how to simply select a directory location before running a report? For instance, I would like to be able to choose for the save location to be a specific folder so that I don't have to go in and move them everytimeCombine Double Pass and Tab
It sure would be nice to be able to use these strategies combined so intricate parts don't have to be recut. First pass @ .1"Z Second pass through but parts below a certain size (small part threshold) still get tabs.Dropped Routing When Copying Machining
I am having an issue when trying to copy machining from one part to another. I am using the 2D part editor, copying all the machining using AutoCad copy, then pasting it into another part in 2D part editor. This works fine for all the drilled holes butG code error cutting face 6

How do I redraw or view a product placed in the product viewer? Better yet, is it drawn somewhere and I just need to know where to find it in the drawing? I do not have an option when I right click on the product to "draw product" like I have seen onMap Material to Processing Station
Has anyone ever seen the benefit of 'mapping' materials to a specific CNC machine? That would let you set up each material so that each part would be populated to the processing center with a combination of stations already assigned. Instead of a manualHelp with Door and Drawer Front Detail Report
