FeatureCAM, developed by Delcam, is a suite of CAD/CAM software which combines cutting edge technology with ease of use, automates machining and minimizes programming times for parts on mills, lathes and wire EDM. User Interface: Chinese DLL: 'Pack file' option name is not changed to Chinese name even if the installation done as Chinese language. Installation: Please install/copy RegAsm32.exe to FeatureCamToVericut and FeatureCAMToNCSIMUL Addins folders when installing 32-bit FeatureCAM. API: Need ability to extract/get list/collection of geometries (args, points or lines) constructing all Turning tools. API Help: help page: There are 2 Reference items in the Contents tab of API Help. It looks like they are identical so one of these items should be removed from Contents tab. User interface: Add Help IDs for WireEDM features API: Stock.ExportToSTL doesn't work on a round stocks in turn/mill parts. API: Need to be able to Get/Set value of "Turning Input Modes". The options are XYZ, Diameter, Radius. Multiple fixture: feed speed in tool properties doesn't follow in a multiple fixture project. 2-axis milling: missing side feature (counterbore) because of inaccurate stock outline. User interface: Warning dialog pops up behind the SolidWorks interface which causes SolidWorks to appear to be locked up. Xbuild: Left boundary doesn't work if "Used canned cycle" is checked on. Turn: XBuild: is not being calculated correctly. FC is using the ends of the simulation scan lines as the end of the thread instead of the Z value output in the NC code for the calculation of taper depth. As the angle of the thread becomes steeper the error is greater. Uninstall: Uninstalling FC using the Add/Remove programs leaves behind a FeatureCAM entry in the list even though FC was already removed. FC-PMP: Clicking 'Edit' when choosing a pmpost file does not open the pmpost editor FC-PMP: User interface: We should add type file filter for pmopt (pmoptz) files to post file selection dialog in DFS. FC-PMP: If we use PM-Post postprocessor in DFS then button "NC file" in Results area of Delcam for SolidWorks right insert doesn't work. 4-axis milling: wrap: weird toolpath if feature with NT spiral wrapped. Network Database: FC crashes when adding a new tool to the network database using the API. install: remove uninstall command from programs menu. API: The attribute eAID_PartLineProgram returns 0 when the corresponding checkbox in the UI is checked and 1 otherwise. It should be the other way around. Dongle: need FC to support new pafwizard 4.3.40 to be installed with FC as well. MTT: Option for setting horizontal lower turret sometimes does not generate correct toolpaths or gives error that cutting cannot be done in this direction. User Interface: Pattern feature options grayed out after creation of first one 2-axis milling: Feed rate for first move of a tool not being output if last operation used the same feed rate. Tooling: Sometimes featurecam sticks a _tools_from_last_saved in your list of possible tool cribs which cant be deleted via tool manager Help: API: On page "FeatureCAM API Examples" example "Working with Colors" is listed twice - in Simple and Intermediate examples sections... It should only be Simple Examples section Turn: cutgrip: cut grip feature offseted when we set NE tool. Turn/Mill: extra spot-drill cycle being output using pattern. Turn/Mill: Upper turret B axis angles in NC code are incorrect on second setup. User interface: "Create new item" button on "Feed/Speed" page of Tool properties dialog looks disabled. Turn: taper thread: bad rapid move gouges the part with some cnc files. 2-axis milling: face: cut direction changes from V16 to V17. User interface: In Options dialog's Milling properties, turning on the 'Cutter comp' check-box doesn't un-grey the 'Part line program' check-box. Turn: Turn/milling with a metric tool in an inch document, makes for odd toolpaths. Import: When going thru the import wizard with an STL_blob, we call ::map_tran_obj 4 times (making 4 copies). which are all deleted, but we should just have 1 'thing' that we mangle/xform thru the import wizard. 64-bit: fcdatacom: turn off "switch-to / retry" on fcdatacom. Machine sim: Turnmill main spindle won't rotate in C if the solid that has the C rotation is not the top-most table Vericut: Request to support new facemill properties. TPEDIT: delete: desire connect with retraction for multiple passes. tpedit: refresh problem after doing a delete. tpedit: the delete operation is delete one point to many, causing the deleted edge to be ragged. 3d sim: lathe tool b-angle is incorrect in 3d sim. centerline and machine sim are ok. 3d sim: turn problem with bore roughing: tool is upside down Turn: tool selection: insert seems to be far away from the holder. 3d sim: 3D simulation on this turned part does not match the centerline simulation. User interface: Feature properties bitmap appears to be overlapping text widgets. InitDB: crash updating network database to new schema Turn: Setup: Incomplete toolpath is generated if stock is set in setup. Network database: adding solid model as a tool holder causing crash. 2-axis milling: NT: Non-block stock or stock curve doesn't work correctly for boss feature with NT stepover type (DMK style). Simulation: 3D simulation continuously displayed between setups without using generate a single program set does not work if you choose the other setup from the Part View. It does work if you change setups from the status bar. 2 axis turn: Post omits pass through barfeed format if pull amount =0. AFR: local offset: pattern: The local offset option should be off by default if in a previous file you set local offset the next time you use AFR for a hole pattern it defaults to local offset and the pattern is created off the feature or somewhere other than where it should be.
