| Can't edit fonts in Mastercamx Ok heres the problem. If I type in some words into mastercamx using create letters and create an engraving toolpath, it does it no problem. But if I delete my tool path and then xform drag some words a little distance and then recreate my toolpath it says chains are open even though I went over the entire letters looking for breaks and didn't see any. Of course I guess I could recreate the words one at a time and maybe move them that way. Any ideas why if I type a couple of words that I can't move them with out chains opening up? |

| do not delete the toolpath. regenerate it after you move the geometry. use normal xform not drag or adjust "chaining tolerance" value to pick up the breaks in your geometry

| As he stated no resion to delete the path. as for using drag that works fine. Here is a 3 min sample engraving with Drag. http://www.mastercam-cadcam.com/engr...avingdrag.html
