I recently added CAM to my QCAD 3.4.0 (Linux openSUSE 12.3)
Started by experimenting with a simple drawing (circle and line) to experiment with GCode process.
Selecting CAMExport shows the command in the command window, but nothing seems to happen.
I am moderately familiar with GCode, never used CAM-Expert.
Pointers please to some documentation of some sort.
Thanks

Re: Getting started with CAM add-on
I have been reading thru the doc folder under camexpert.
Is there a way to access CAM Simulation under the QCADCAM 3.4.2 combined package?

Re: Getting started with CAM add-on
Simulation is experimental (work in progress) but has meanwhile been improved. I expect to have a stable simulation tool for the next release.
