Re: Error Helpme!

Post by adze_cnc »

Your fumction call contains one more parameter than your function definition (in particular the variable “tool_stepover_percent”). That percent value is being passed to the “tool_in_mm” parameter which is expecting a Boolean value).

Code: Select all

function Percurso_de_Preenchimento(job, layer_name, name, start_depth, cut_depth,
tool_dia, tool_stepdown, tool_in_mm)

success = Percurso_de_Preenchimento(job, layer_name3, "Rebaixo", start_depth, cut_depth,
tool_dia, tool_stepdown, tool_stepover_percent, tool_in_mm)
