2.18.7.release13/06/2007
DXF
DXF import : Layer names to Layer numbers assignment options. Necessary also for DXF Layers > 32 , for example if internal lines are in popular layer '70' must be set assignment 70->7 and for internal lines must be added layer 7 (Properties -> DXF Import)
Zund M800 driver
Driver for Zund M-800 with rotated coordinates (for better manipulation with cutter), it is called "Zund M-800 X-Y"
DXF import
Update point distance on arcs to 1mm
Constant layer for drills fixed (relic from from non layer version)
Reduce circles for drill layers to single points. Several updates for reading non block dxf files (one piece - one file).
Language switching
Bug on switching languages fixed
Bad messages

Calibration lines - instead of 'dash' - solid black lines

2.18.5.release21/07/2006
New licensing scheme
Minor updates and bug fixes - see 'With Bugs' list for more details.
3rd window
3rd screen (piece menu as a separated screen)
- I expect wide screen 2400x600 or 3072x768, each screen will have 1/3 of wide screen,
First is the piece menu (it could be also on 3rd position, in the next version )
Menu->File->Properties -> Nesting -> 3rd screen for piece menu
It is only available for 1 table / 2 projectors
Plotting full grid
In Nesting options => Calibration, there is a new switch : Plot Grid
- if 'ON' the program will plot whole lines/grid instead of small crosses.
New Plot/cut system
Cutting dialog -> Settings -> General Properties- > Plot/Cut system -> 'First tool2 , pause, tools 4-3-1'
System finds all lines for Pen (Tool 2) , plots them, and stops cutter with command MS (message on LCD, off line state)
Also Message Box comes up. Then system cut with tool 3, 4 and 1 (knife) etc.
Vacuum changes
Switch "Select whole Vacuum Column under nested Piece" caused the problem with auto selecting whole column. It was done because of problems with vacuum on cutters in France,
only if whole column was switched on, the max power of vacuum had been given.
Probably there were some problems with valves or with pump.
