I played with the 3-D graphics options but didn't note any change. I did load up the older version of designer (1.187) and it displays the black dotted lines correctly... guess I'll re-create my...

NOP!! On the one computer (that displays the dotted lines correctly) toggling the "Construction Lines" does in fact turn the black dotted lines on and off.... But on the bad actor, toggling the...

I have two Mac computers running Designer 2.007.... When I draw a rectangle on one, the black dotted lines show up when the rectangle is NOT selected. If I do the same thing on the other system,...

I just had success using pattern editor, and it didn't crash designer... I edited a pattern, and saved it to disk, but I didn't actually close the editor... I just clicked on the designer and drove...

I'm running Designer 2.007 on a Macintosh with Yosemite OS X10.10.3, with the scanner probe and Pattern Editor (ver.??) but if I double click a pattern and try to save it (changed or not) designer...

Thanks Mugsowner for the MPC's... cute!! I'll stash them for a project to keep the grandkids busy this summer... Cheers -D

I've got it!! I found Steve Nelson's videos, and realized that I had been selecting the pattern I'd placed on the board, which had several figures on it.... Watching Steve's video, I realized that...

I've got a JPG with the outline of several little people (like ginger bread men) and when I import it into the pattern editor, all I can seem to do is make a carved copy of the drawing... I've tried...

Thank you DianMayfield for explaining how to properly utilize the 'CUTOUT' function and Berger for explaining how I got the perplexing results by inadvertantly combining both a 'tool spec' and a...

I'm having trouble with using "CUT OUT"... I attach three pictures.. first is just my project done wit the "V" bit to show it's lines, next is through cuts with a straight 1/8 bit (looks OK) but last...

I've been fighting to understand and fix an X-Axis tracking issues myself... Being new to CarveWright, I assumed it was something I was doing wrong, and wasted quite a bit of time and lumber... Then...

I've done some thinking on this, and here's the deal... "WoodNutt" originally posted his 4 man cribbage board MPC... so he wanted folks to use and enjoy it... which I've done!! I added the cup holder...

James...(aka WoodNutt) I'm just learning to use my CW... but I love cribbage, and was very interested to find your 4-man board... I down loaded the mpc, and ran it (at this date, I'm running...

I had to resort to buying 1/8" cutting bits from eBay because CarveWright was out of stock, and couldn't even forecast when they'd be getting more in... Fortunately I had already procured an ER-11...

I did in fact perminently modify the outlet of my Dust Devil to accommodate my 2" shop vac hose... and I'm very pleased with it's performance... it probably sucks up 90% of the swarf, and virtually...

It seems like it would save a lot of heart ache if there was a check for RPM's before a "Z axis down" was initiated... No RPM's equals an "Check Motor" error, and a stopped process..? It sounds...

ANSWERS!!!:D I talked to Lynn at CW, and she told me a lot about the evolution of the Designer program, and how there were mostly additions to the original coding, and that there really shouldn't...

I have a very limited shop area, so I came up with a very functional setup for my CarveWright machine. I started with a Harbor Freight rolling tool cart and stiffing the top with 3/4" plywood, but...

Yep... it did spin up when entering the new tool measuring routine. I've never gotten to actually cutting anything at that phase... The first time it broke the bit (and ended that board-try), next...

Thanks for the info... a bit had to find (http://www.carvewright.com/assets/downloads/readme_2_005.txt) but a lot of information there!

I'm sure I should clarify... I am extremely new to the CarveWright world, and am undoubtedly doing everything wrong... and I'm well used to learning the hard way, I've just become accustomed to fall...

There are a lot of MPC's in that package. The one I was working with was the "half_parts.mpc"... I bought it hoping to learn how he did, what he did, so I could understand by example and results......

OK... call me cynical... by deflect, I was implying that they might not want to consider that their software could be the problem.. I did empty the memory card, and re-load the suspect MPC.. between...

I've just broken my second 1/8" cutting bit, on the same MPC, at exactly the same time-position in the project (months apart) and had a third instance where I was lucky enough to hit the stop before...

Responding to a really old question... I'd like to add my own... I'm very interested in making geared things (clocks, toys..etc..) and does an imported DXF file maintain the correct size of pattern,...
