If you use the target tab edges for the line ends it constrains the bend to the tab only. I am not sure if this si good design or not, but it means you can control but with out buttons to click.

I am not going to do this to myself anymore and I am outta here. Good luck Paul and others and it was nice knowing you over the years. I can't believe this is considered a release worthy of more money from subscribers!! I click on the little smiley face looking for a frowning angry face and there is nothing in the drop down menu.

In my opinion, boolean fails should be the highest. They are not the easiest but they are very very important and party stoppers. Right now this one of a number that have been there for a long time. Will we will have a 64bit version boolean fail? Command fails should be next in line, then tweaks and improvements. There is no point in having a new flashy interface etc if the boolean fails... Just a thought for 2013.... mudcrab 2013-01-29 04:53:31 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16509 [i=s] Post Last Edit by mirko72 at 2013-1-28 15:23 [/i] Hi same problem in version 2013 beta2 (babylon traslator) [attach]723[/attach] mirko72 2013-01-28 15:18:57 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16480 [color=#000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=13px][b]Then on the sheet i am well aware of the generosity of IF, but i think that ZW3D has a big potentiality also thanks to the price, the quality is not indifferent, his problem i think it is the past , now plan the plan will improve according to me, and as thou hast explained serves time, in the meantime where I am having problems using think3 designer (babylon traslator)[/b][/size][/font][/color] mirko72 2013-01-13 13:21:18 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16479 [b][attach]703[/attach]Reply [url=http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=16475&ptid=2495]16#[/url] [i]cutter[/i] [/b] [color=#000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=13px][b]Hello ,cutter according to me, that it is direct editing , parametric, hybrid , it is always good depends on the type of work, I personally prefer the hybrid[/b][/size][/font][/color] mirko72 2013-01-13 13:16:00 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16475 [attach]701[/attach][attach]699[/attach][attach]700[/attach] Mirko, If this gets through try this one in ZW. Took around 15 minutes in brand "X" and as a bonus all the dimensions can be used to drive the part. Now you have to unlock dimensions to do editing because there are relationships there but you don't have to go to the tree and redo and regen. You never leave the screen shown and all editing is done right there with direct editing. cutter 2013-01-12 21:11:19 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16290 [b]Reply [url=http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=16283&ptid=2495]13#[/url] [i]cutter[/i] [/b] [color=#000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=13px][b]Hi, it is true there are tools much more inspired and i use a product that is very targeted for sheet metal , but with zw3d i do everything equal and faster : ), i have written as reporting a problem and i am sure these addresses when they had done this .[/b][/size][/font][/color] mirko72 2012-11-20 02:23:17 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16286 [b]Reply [url=http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=16283&ptid=2495]13#[/url] [i]cutter[/i] [/b] [size=3][color=black]"Just as bitter medicine cures sickness, so unpalatable advice benefits conduct."[/color][/size] [color=black][/color] [color=black]We are willing to accept any suggestion and any criticism.[/color] [color=black][/color] [color=black]I know some thing is not good for our customers.But improvements are in the plan.

Mirko you are in for grief if you intend to use ZW for a production or design sheet metal package. They are telling you guys that you have to wait years for any hope added to the years already gone for who knows what. Orchid, I hate to say this but if you all don't get on the ball and start some major innovations and problem solving you are going to fall further and further behind your competition. Direct editing is a joke. Sheet metal the same and still no 64 bit and I bet not in 2013 either. I have simple CAM problems like lead ins with spiral in tool paths where the default cut path starts by plunging into the stock and arcing into the cut path from inside the stock and not outside the stock and if you don't know about the macros to over-ride the default tool path strategies you can't use this tool path. Sometimes I have to select the bottom profile for a hole and others the top to get it to work and fiddling around with experiments to see what might work this time is a time waster for me. It should be consistent every time. It is possible to come up with a combination to do most everything in 3 axis cam in ZW eventually but getting there can be a chore and time is money so when I have to fool around with try this and try that it is money out of my pocket. I am not a novice with VX/ZW and have been a customer since 2005 so I can imagine the grief newbies get who don't know what to try when it all does not work right. Another problem area is trochoidal machining like Volumill or Truemill. The amount of metal that can be removed in cubic inches per minute is hugely faster than anything in ZW and as a bonus endmills last a lot longer for the amount of work done. Lathe is dangerous to use from what I understand so now it is finally here and you better verify before using that tool path. I don't use CAD in ZW anymore because direct editing when done well is such a powerful tool but it is not so with ZW. Solid Edge is my benchmark for comparison by the way and they have real sheet metal to. There have been some minor improvements but the key word here is minor ever since you guys bought VX. Does ZW intend to fix the problems and shortcomings or just continue to tinker with them? 2014 is not a good answer by the way to users for things that should be in there now. cutter 2012-11-18 13:21:10 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16263 2014?? :'( :P [color=#000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=13px][b]Thanks for the response[/b][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=13px][b]As friendly as always.[/b][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=13px][b]Good day[/b][/size][/font][/color] [color=#000][font=arial, sans-serif][size=13px][b]Mirko[/b][/size][/font][/color] mirko72 2012-11-12 15:22:19 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16257 [b]Reply [url=http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=16256&ptid=2495]10#[/url] [i]mudcrab[/i] [/b] Hello Paul& Mirko, We know this boolean problem. For this case, my suggestion just is a workaround. I think you know that it is not a simple work to be fixed within a short time. It will be a imporant issue to be improved in a later version. In each version, ZW3D has been in continuous improvements. But each module is different in the emphasis. 2013/2014 version, we will take more attention to the basic features and optimize the work efficiency. I belive that everything is bettter and better.:) orchid 2012-11-12 14:06:50 http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=2495&pid=16256 [b]Reply [url=http://www.zwsoft.com/forum/redirect.php?goto=findpost&pid=16255&ptid=2495]9#[/url] [i]mirko72[/i] [/b] Hi Orchid, your answer about platform focus is good but not comforting. There are quite a lot of little 'boolean type' issues that need to be fixed. All very well to say just change the values a little bit but this means we are designing to the software which is not why we use it. I agree with Mirko that these things have been 'unfixed' for too many years. And as Mirko says, waste a lot of time each day - costing money and frustration energy. I have only used sheet metal a few times but in my short effort found a number of bugs. This should not be. In my opinion as soon as a known bug is found, it should be removed on the next SP or release at the latest. Bug reduction s usually more important to users than change. Sketcher has some bugs which arrived in 2011 and are still there in 2012 SP2. Not a great record.
