see, that makes no sense to me. it seems to me you have to be a computer engineer to run it. i have always create a folder on my desktop like ncfiles and then be able to browes to that folder. So when i want to go find it to put on a thumb drive where do i look with that statement.

ok so i watched some more vids. the " --inches" argument is not available in the centroid post.

 

[devils4ever]

I did not know that. I'm not sure what the differences are between centroid and linuxcnc output. Maybe, you could use the linuxcnc processor?

Ya, i tried that last night but i still cant get it to apply the arguments. something not right.

I just loaded on another computer, nothing works. stuff disappears Completely unstable as of now not usable.
