    Smile mastercam chaining

    Hi everyone,

    I am using mastercam x4. when it comes to chaining the entities for toolpath:
    1 the chaining arrow does not show
    2 the chained entities does not highlighted either
    but I can still generate toolpath
    any setting so I change that
    help please
    thanks
    Ron

    The first thing I would check is in your setting, make sure that the colors are set correctly, i.e. perhaps the arrows are set tot eh same color as the background?

    I'm leaning towards a graphics support setting...mine are OpenGL-ON, Disable hardware accel -ON, Disable front buffer-OFF
    or the Chaining settings
    attached pictures of my settings

    but, if it doesn't solve it
    Put your mcamx.config (inch)or mcamxm.config (metric)file into a compressed folder (.ZIP) and attach it to your next message

    I'll try to compare it to mine

    PS. There is a Mastercam forum here on the Zone, go into that forum & do a search.....you may be surprised what other goodies & tips that you could find
