Cad/Cam software for Linux

ok, but i can also set:

G10 L2 P1 X0 Y0 Z9.0
G54

to set the G54 offsets and the each z move is added by 9.0

i think this is better, because, you can edit the gcode by hand to set other offsets

EDIT:
or G55 for the offsets and G54 keeps 0,0,0

 

it works:

i add new option 'maschine supports g54' to toggle between G54 and offsets in gcode positions

Good job!

What does the "Save drawing as dxf" button do?

when I change a DXF file, for example remove the section, be saved again ?

I can not find the new file! Where is this saved ?

Thank you !

This is more or less a debug function for me,
if i load other files like svg or text, i can save this as DXF to check the data.
At the moment, this do not work with all ezdxf libs, please ignore it.

OK

If I delete something with the selector, how can I undo it?

What else is planned in the future with the program?

There is no undo function, you can only reload the file

Most things worked for me

todo:
bugfixes
editable tool and material tables
toolbutton's.....

nice to have:
presets (at the moment i save and load it as extra config file)
better tab support (it is limited to lines and arcs longer than 10mm i think)
more pocket types and better path planning inside pockets
converting spline/bezier into arcs
maybe better INCH support
win/mac support, but this is not so easy

and all good idea's from outside
.......

OK well, you still have something to do there

Would it be possible to add viaconstructor as a tap in Axis?
But I have no idea if this is feasible and what kind of effort this entails and if this is useful at all!

i take a short look yesterday about axis tab integration because i think i have read in the past that dxf2gcode can do that,
but i can not found it anymore.
If you have a useful link, i can try it

Maybe this helps
