Aspire 9.012 does not show Z thickness of material?

Post by vip-klaus »

I just reconized an issue that the thickness of the milled material is not shown correctly. At the bottom right of the Aspire window are shown the coordinates of the cursor postiton in X, Y and Z. In the current version, the Z-coordinate is not visibly (see attached screenshot).

Is this issue allready known or does only I have this problem?

Greetings
Klaus

At what stage and where are you doing this? It seem to be working ok for me where I would expect it to.

Hi Adrian,

thank you for your reply. Maybe my english is not good enougth to explain the problem correctly. Please see attached pdf file where I show a comparison of the behavior between Aspire 8.5 and Aspire 9.012. In the new version, the Z value of the material is not visible any more. Maybe its only a setting problem in my software?

Have a nice sunday.
Klaus

It looks to be a problem with the language settings. It works fine for me in English mode but if I start in German then I see the same thing that you do.

I suggest you report it as a bug to support@vectric.com

Thanks for the report Klaus and your investigation Adrian. It does indeed look like a break that has occurred during translation, I've submitted a report and we'll try and get it fixed in the next patch.

Update: I allready received a corrected dll file from the Vectric support team. Now the z height is shown correctly also in german language.

Perfect service - thank you!
