Hello,

I installed native cam and played around with some examples, and then made my own part. Just defined a workpiece, selected a mill from my tooltable and defined a rectangle (cut on the outside and through workpiece).

This little test as well as the previously opened examples appear on the preview screen exactly as expected. However, going into automatic mode (gmoccapy) and starting the generated g-code does absolutely nothing. I do not get any error message either.

Is there a way to see some kind of debugging info to see what is happening or why nothing happens?

can you post the gcode and part as it is available dxf/screenshot

and tell us your tooltable entry for the bit you use

it is under normal issues warking on all items test items and conditions
so you might be having some spetial
that native cam does not care about

Fern,

Thanks for the short and elegant reply....it was very effective!
I was convinced it had to be something obvious. Now I understand how the workpiece is displayed....
