    Mastercam Mill v9.1

    For some reason, when I select lines for chaining, the arrow doesn't show up, and I have no idea which way it is chaining. Also when I hover my mouse over an endpoint, the box doesn't appear as it should. I'm relatively new to this program, can anyone help? Thanks

    It's your video card.

    In Windows, Right click your mouse on the desktop and select Properties. Go to the Settings tab and click the Advanced button below. Go to the Trouble shooting tab and move the slider one notch. Then restart Mastercam and try it again. If your still having the same problem, go back and move it doen another notch.

    What Video card do you have. If it's the intel video chip set, you'll probably end up moving to the bottom to get it to work. Not Mastercam's fault. The Intel video chip is known to suck.

    There is also a setting to use OpenGL or not.
    Toggleing it one way or the other usually fixes video problems also.
    ObrienDave. MasterCam since V6. Gcode since 1983.
