Problem- Stock size? new patch

[mikeh78]

Is anyone else having trouble with the stock size in the new patch?
I seem to be getting a scaling issue. If I draw a rectangle for stock it creates a block several times the actual size and if it is not centered on x0 y0 it also moves along the axis the same scale. If I had to guess it is around 5x scale.

Yes, there is a problem there. I've run into the same thing. If you don't have to have the stock, just delete it's geometry and verify will work fine. Otherwise, you can try and make miniature stock for the time being.

How about the new pocket entries? Those made my day! The rest of the update seems to be working really nice! I had a part that I could make the old release crash with every time, but not now.

Yep...same problem.

What should be a 2" cube looks like 40" x 40" x 2" thick plate in verify.

It seems to be related to whether Stock is defined or not. When I don't define the the Stock, Verify is OK.

Someone know of a parameter setting?

Good it's not just me. I looked at all the settings I could find and I couldn't find anything to scale it.
Smurph:
The new features are pretty nice, and I have only had 1 crash so far. and I think it was the way I was trying to do something.

I'm having the exact same problem with stock size that is discribed by the other guys. Verify is fine but that's not what we paid for, is bobcad working on this issue? Just so its said with the exception of the stock size problem the rest of the software update works fine!

[moldmker]

OK... Here's what Bobcad thinks the stock size is when I pick on the small circle in the center of the screen. Doesn't matter if I'm in metric or inch.

Verify must be picking up on this for it's block size?

I'm sure on Monday someone from Bobcad can address this...

[smurph]

I'm sure they are working on it. It was reported it to support the day of the update.

It seems like this version is pretty bad compared to v21 so I am back on v21. Other systems are looking cheaper by the day.

The Stock size issue was reported and is being addressed. The scaling is by units. For some reason it is scaling by 25.4. It will be addressed soon.

Based on the above, I was able to get correct results by scaling down the geometry by 1/25.4 first, then picking it.

I posted this on the Bobcad forum, as well.
