Re: [Emc-users] running PyCAM (dev) under Windows (was: Text on rounded button.)
Hi Erik, sorry - this thread slipped out of my sight for ten days ... Am Mon, 12 Nov 2012 08:18:50 -0500 schrieb Erik Friesen e...@aercon.net: Ok, got pycam going on linux. A couple things.. Generate toolpath generates a flat toolpath, it requires generate all to generate the curve. almost :) There are currently four path strategies: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/pycam/index.php?title=ProcessSettings#Strategies Just choose the surface strategy if you don't want to work on flat layers. MM seems to be hard coded here?? no way! :) Take a look at the preferences - there you can select inch. Is there a place to input retract height? I am not sure: is this similar to the concept of safety height? This could be found in the preferences as well.

Re: [Emc-users] Text on rounded button.
Hi, I am trying the PyCam, it loaded an stl. Then I created text, the stl disappeared. So I reloaded the stl, then the text is gone. I must be missing some basics. yes - sorry - this detail was hidden in the article :) The last release of PyCAM could only handle one model at a time - that's why you can't see both at the same moment. Just checkout the latest development branch and run it - this is a matter of seconds since you already installed all requirements (except git): git clone git://pycam.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/pycam/pycam cd pycam scripts/pycam I hope this helps ...

Re: [Emc-users] running PyCAM (dev) under Windows (was: Text on rounded button.)
Hi Erik, I installed the prereqs, and used git, but not sure from there. did you already clone the git repository? Where you able to run the pycam script? (Probably you need to type something like c:\python25\python scripts/pycam) Are there any error messages? Cheers, Lars -- LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.

Re: [Emc-users] running PyCAM (dev) under Windows (was: Text on rounded button.)
Hi Erik, Hacked the dll into the directory, got it going, however, whenever I click item to view, exception is thrown Gdk:ERROR:gdkgc-win32.c:748:get_impl_drawable: code shouhd not be reached I am sorry to hear that you stumbled upon this kind of ugliness! Sadly the OpenGL library that is used by PyCAM is slightly non-maintained in the Windows world. Thus I can't help you here. One or two years down the road PyCAM will switch to another OpenGL library - but this is of no help for you right now :( cheers, Lars -- LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.

Re: [Emc-users] Text on rounded button.
Hi, The software I currently have is, alibre pro(no gcode), vcarve pro, and meshcam, none of which seem capable of curved text. did you already try PyCAM? (disclaimer: I maintain PyCAM) I just prepared a short article with some screenshots that show how to solve your specific problem with this software: http://fab.senselab.org/en/node/268 Cheers, Lars -- LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.

Re: [Emc-users] What should I do to get the performance back?
Hi, @Lars, in my first post [..] to avoid any confusion for other readers: I sent a private mail to Sven yesterday explaining that FMPOV he needs to be more specific about the meaning of speed and how he measured its decline. cheers, Lars -- Everyone hates slow websites.
