Scott,
I found a problem in this beta version

Also I might have miss...

Scott ,

cool thanks hadn't thought of using address adjust
Sorry for the delay
When g09 is in the line with g code it will not allow the shift command to shift that code.
Say i have 10 lines of xy coordinates and place g09 at the beginning of two lines to...
is there a way to add ignore command to the shift ,rotate, ect. When I use shift to move a part in program I first have to find and replace G09- (check exact stop) to something such as G0000 and the...
thanks Scott will give this a look
Scott was wondering if adding a log file to DNC transmit might be possible.
This would help to track cut jobs on the floor
Maybe weakly/monthy with time and date stamp
And a save to location with...
Ok here is the script to replace redundant end points be aware this will need to be modified to work with your code it does not handle n, k ,or z as it is.
I have notes in the script so you should...

If I remember correctly it just affects how NcPlot interprets the code.
If there is code that does not have a decimal or has the redundant coordinates removed.
It does not change your code just...

Yes NCPlot can transmit files to your machine you can configure it to your machine setting
look under DNC\Comm Setup\
as for solid verify I think Scott in working on it

your code that cut correctly plots fine for me if i set arc centers to absolute
try changing this setting under setup\machine configuration\control setting\then select (on arc tab) absolute arc...
you code may need to be cleaned up first i had to get rid of feed rates and z height save file under different name and open both under file\compare file. Then edit and add back needed feed rates and...
Yes you can convert coordinates to absolute in NcPlot 2.20
Highlight the code that your editing (select the whole G91 string) then go to Tools\Convert Coordinates to ABS then change that G91 to G90...
Scott ,
