Re: Move speed changes upon part file start

Check that you've selected the tool for the machine/material combination you're expecting.

Re: Any budget 3d scanner recomendation?

I use a Revopoint Inspire with my 3D printer. Very easy to scan but the software has a bit of a learning curve especially if you're working with large items. For stuff that fits on the turntable it's pretty faultless.

Re: Has Clipart Changed?

Nothing was added for V12. If you download it will overwrite rather than double up assuming you've left everything in the original locations. You don't need to download the packages though unless you want to install them on an offline computer. The clipart tab is cloud enabled (the icons at the top ...

Re: Default to Machine Bed

Tested it on single sided and double sided jobs and it works as expected. Guess it might be an issue with running on a Mac?

Re: Default to Machine Bed

Working fine for me on a Windows PC. It defaults to the last used value which is the same as previous versions.

Re: Looking for a Post Processor to use arcs instead of lines...

Looking at the Centroid (Inch) Post Processor in V12 and V11 (probably earlier versions too) it has all the functionality for handling arcs in it.

Are you using that post processor? If so are you sure the curves in your vectors are arcs and not beziers.

Re: curve tool

Got to admit I'm amazed at how many people used that tool. It was easily the most awkward drawing tool in the whole package IMO. I could never get it follow any curve I wanted at an accuracy level that would beat the other methods and/or anywhere as close to fast.

Re: Release Notes for 12.005

Sounds like you have "Always open local documentation" set to "Yes" within General Settings of Options on the Edit menu.

That will look locally for the release notes as well as for the Help documentation.

The draw curves tool has been removed. The freehand drawing tool is not a substitute for it. It does not work the same…
I know but the person I was replying to was getting them confused. I never said the freehand tool was the replacement for it or that the draw curves tool hadn't been removed.

Re: V12 3D View - Model displays as transparent

There aren't any components in that list though so there's nothing to display. You should have components listed under Level 1.

Are you on the correct sheet for the model?

Re: V12 3D View - Model displays as transparent

Hi Adrian, thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately, it seems the problem lies elsewhere. I've attached another screen grab with modeling plane, block visibility & all layers on. Still the "maple" model itself does not display. Go to the Component tab and makes sure the levels and components are s...

Re: Open two projects at the same time

You can open two (or more instances) of VCarve if you want to and have them on different monitors. It works the same as any other windows program.

Re: Support for graphic drivers!

I noticed what may be bug that might be bitting you. If you do the simulation with the animation turned on and are less than 100% animation speed, it uses 100% of all CPU cores on my system (Windows 11 Pro on a AMD Ryzen 8700g). Turn off the animation and the simulation completes almost instantly. ...

Re: V12 Array Preview Broken

It's definitely an issue as it's easily repeatable. Pressing the Calculate button twice should really give an error as you're then trying to create an array of an array which isn't possible but it shouldn't be removing the preview the way it is.
