Error or bug (or misuse?)

Post by Jibeji »

Hi,
When trying to generate Gcode, I've got a warning saying that the maximal size (625 x 625 mm) is reached, but it is not!
What's going wrong?

Do you have a negative offset set in the Job Setup? There is an issue with using negative offsets and the desktop versions of the software which Vectric are looking into.

Does someone know if a correction is on the pipe?
It is really painful, I have most of the time to set the origin outside the work piece to make it running!!!

As long as all your vectors are within the workspace and you don't have any negative numbers in your offsets then you shouldn't be having a problem I wouldn't think.

Could you attach a file that you have to set the origin outside of the work space to work?

Hi Adrian,
I have attached the file.
I'd like to mill this, inside of a piece of aluminum.
As the aluminum is fixed to the frame on the angles (left down & right up), I tried to set the origin in a middle of a hole so that there is no risk for the spindle to touch the clamps.
