Can't save parameters between jobs

Post by peterholmbeck »

I'm name engraving drum sticks at music festivals. With Cut2D version 7.0 I could save all the parameters like tool engraver bit, number of passes, and return to home. With Version 10.0 all my setting revert back every time despite my saving changes. I want to have a master file with the same consistent parameters like engraver bit selection, depth and number of passes, and return to home that I can open and just change the name for the next customer like I was able to with version 7.0. Takes forever now with customers waiting in line. It is a home built machine I am running Gbrl through a arduino control board. The machine has always worked great. Just having trouble with Vectric. What am I doing wrong?

Which toolpath are you using?

What do you mean by "return to home"?

There's no reason why you shouldn't be able to open an existing file, change some text, recalculate the toolpath and output with no other changes. I've done it multiple times a day with no issues with every version since 2006 so there's something strange going on.
