These updates man

Hey Eldar,

Just wanted to post and see how things are and let you know the past few updates have been incredibly useful for me.

The window resizing is amazing as my secondary programming location has a tiny second monitor that never fit the full program without scrolling.

I actually do have a question regarding the engraving calculations that you recently updated....I don't use V-Bit engravers, I use a 90* or 60* drill mill for my engraving. If I designate this tool as a chamfer mill it can't account for the straight flute length, and if I set it as an end mill it can't account for the angled tip. Is there a way you recommend defining tools of this style? I kind of need to combine a chamfer mill with a regular end mill.

Thanks a million for the constant updates man, you really rock!
Jake

Hi,

Glad you like the changes!

I know what you mean. But as you pointed out there is currently no way to combine the pointed tool with endmill.

You would have to create two tool types for that.
One for plunging and engraving and another one for wall milling.

I will try to find a way (boy, it will not be easy) to combine the two.
