GearHeads Corner

Hi Art,
I've been designing a Chrono mechanism.  I can complete the design on the project screen and save the various components to gCode and cut them out.  The issue comes when I save a .gth file.  It goes to the gear data folder as expected and everything looks fine.  Later when I go back into GT and try to open a save file  the screen shows the chromo part of the escapement only and covering that is the message.
Failed to Open Document

Any idea what I've done?

John:

  Download latest version, it will fix the problem. Ignore any extra buttons that show up, thats just development work..

Art

Is this how you take the summer off?

You otta see whats behind those buttons... lol

  Believe me, I DO take it easy in summer. I just dont completely stop is all.. By the fall release I hope
to be fully educated on several programming techniques I dont currently quite grasp.. Hopefully to everyones advantage. :)

Hi Art,
When I download the latest version the wizard tells me its going to GT2-006 and everything proceeds as normal.

When I click on the alies to open the program I get the usual opening screen of pretty gears and then I get a flash of the designing screen and then it goes back to the desktop and I have no program.

Help.

John

Hi All:

  Problem appears solved. I just tested on my Win7 and XP machines and it all seems to work.
Problem was you were missing a tooltable ( you cant reach it as yet but the program now has a tool table
and I neglected to add the file in the release.

Thx
