I don’t have a tool changer for Cam operations and I was hoping there was a way to export each CAM operation as a separate file? Roughing in a file by its self. Contours by its self, ETC.
Its very time consuming and can introduce errors doing it by hand.
Thanks
hi @cdo1955 and welcome! you can ctrl+click or cmd+click an operation to disable it (turns red). then export will ignore it. the feature you’re asking for (a zip download containing a file for each op) is on my todo list.
Thanks for the prompt help, Great software
Just wanted to add: I don’t have a tool changer either, but I setup my G-code streamer (bCNC) to intercept tool change requests so I can manually change tools, then keep going. I find that to be easier and less error prone than running separate files.
maybe this week in a dev (3.2) release… I will post a follow-up here.
turns out this was easier than expected. will be in tonight’s release!
zip file export with operations in discrete files is now in production in version 3.2
I tagged on another feature per a request from @mcdanlj which is to enable/disable parts from consideration similar to the way operations can be enabled / disabled. when selected, the top/left context menu now has delete (trash icon) or disable (x icon). when a disabled part is selected, the (x) turns into a check () to allow you to re-enable it.
please let me know if these feature are working for you
