Larger Screen

[Bob La Londe]

I'm sure somebody has addressed this. Just point me to the the right thread and I'll go read it.

The screen where the part you are cutting is displayed could be bigger or have some zoom capabilities. If it does how? If not is there a mod?

I've got a pretty large screen with pretty high res on my controller machine, and it would be nice to make use of that. Especially when making a dry run on a part.

If you click on the display, you can zoom and rotate it.

Yo could also use the Toolpath screen, which has a bigger toolpath.

Or, you can also make your own screens.

The tool path screen works very nice. How do you zoom on the part?

[ger21]

Click in the display and use the mouse wheel. Left click to rotate, right click to drag.

Yep, got that (except no mouse wheel, I'm a track ball user), but you said ZOOM.

How do I zoom?

Shift + Left click will also zoom, if you don't have a mouse wheel.
