The problem with creating g-code.

The problem with creating g-code.

If you create a detail drawing, we use the method of "cloning", then the picture we get two of the same item, everything is fine and quite convenient. When you try to create a Path tool in the image path appears on two identical elmentah. When viewing Well-code text it is clear that in reality, the code creates the same, exactly the same for both elements, without taking into account the displacement of the second element. Thus Now the tool "clone" is not suitable for further use to create the path.

My apologies - translated by Google.

Would you be able to post an example design by any chance? I'm not entirely clear what you're trying to do.

add the path to the red cylinder, the picture on the left, does not lead to the birth of the g-code for red ceylinder. Option to kratinke right works.

Please accept my apologies - really, not in the topic has created the post. Yes, and also developed the theme in a different topic - viewtopic.php?f=8&t=18630&p=145218#p145218

Hey memfis,

what you are trying to is create a Job for two Parts. A Job can only have a single Base object and doesn't really know anything about other objects in the document. In other words, it doesn't know about the red cylinder's existence.

You either have to create a separate Job for each Part, or you can also create a copy of the original path and place it so it coincides with the cloned cylinder.

HTH,
Markus

PS: Going forward if you have Path specific questions it would be better to post them in the Path forum, you'll get more people knowing about Path reading that.
