Default Tooling and library

Post by TimPower » Fri 23 Nov , 2007 14:20 pm

When I open the Novaturn program I'm encountering a few problems.
The units will come up automatically as imperial. Can I change a program file so the automatically come up as metric.
Also I changed some items in the tool library and in the tooling menu but when I open the program again the old ones show up. What must I change so that my new selection comes up everytime.
One last problem, when I open the tool library it comes up, however if I close it and go to open it again it doesn't show up, I have to leave the program and re enter.
Hope you can give me a few pointers on these.

Cheers,
Tim.

Are you using VR turning?

If so all you have to do to change units is to click on the icon at the bottom left of the screen or go to the setup menu and select metric from the units option.

Offsets should be automatically saved. Is your computer networked? Could it be the directory where the offsets are stored is write protected?
