QCADCAM on Windows
Hi Andrew
I've loaded 3.7 on to two win8.1 machines and I can't get the -enable-script-debugger to work("QCad stop working").
Also the cut from center option breaks the CAM process only on Windows. Of course I cant find the problem. My Fedora20 machine works fine.
Thanks for the changes to Camexporter as it gives me more options. I'm in the process of making my file clean of your code.
Have I missed something with windows?

Re: QCADCAM on Windows
The script debugger can be useless in some situations since it changes the order in which the application processes. It allows event processing to take place between any two script calls which can have undesirable side effects including crashes.srl wrote:I've loaded 3.7 on to two win8.1 machines and I can't get the -enable-script-debugger to work("QCad stop working").
This is odd. Especially since all CAM functionality is implemented on a script level, far away from the operating system. Is it the same QCAD/CAM version?srl wrote:Also the cut from center option breaks the CAM process only on Windows. Of course I cant find the problem. My Fedora20 machine works fine.
A good way to check what is going on is to place qDebug() output statements at selected places in your code and watch the output.

Hi Andrew
The script debugger on windows is now working.
I'm finding that the cut from centre option with GCode.js only works on all versions if I have the -enable script debugger on.
I have a config file with a full exportContour function and it is fine.
Could this be because of the changes to export contour?

Re: QCADCAM on Windows
I cannot reproduce this here at the moment (QCAD/CAM 3.7.2, configuration 'GCode').
Does this affect a particular drawing file? If so, can you attach it? Can you also attach a screenshot of the CAM export dialog, so I can see the exact parameters used? Thanks!

Hi Andrew
I just noticed the 372 update last night. Just tested again and cut inner paths is still broken here.
Any entity inside a closed contour drawing with the "Cut inner paths before outer paths" checked.
It works fine with -enable debugger. srl

Re: QCADCAM on Windows
OK, thanks. I can reproduce it with the 'cut inner paths before outer paths' option (before, you mentioned 'cut from center' which seems not to be the problem, right?).
I will look into that, thanks.

Re: QCADCAM on Windows
OK, this is fixed for the next release. Thanks for the report.
Re: QCADCAM on Windows
Thanks Andrew
All working again in the latest 3.7.3 release.
