VisualCam Clipboard functionality
Posted: Tue Feb 18, 2014 12:02 pm
So I couldn't help but notice that the clipboard in VisualCAM doesn't work except within a single document. What do I mean by this?
Can't open a file, select and copy a section of geometry, create a new file, and paste that geometry.
Can't copy geometry from one instance of VisualCAM to another instance of VisualCam
Clipboard contents aren't maintained between between sessions.
This makes workflow and organization awkward sometimes - For example, a large number of parts on a sheet, which you don't want to disturb, but for one run, you need to recut four of them. It would be great if you could copy and paste those to a new file, But you just can't.
If this clipboard stuff can't be fixed, what about the ability to export only the selected geometry? Another menu item under "FILE" - Keep "EXPORT" and add "EXPORT SELECTED"
While we're on the subject... does anybody actually use "Browse..." ?
Thanks,
Andy
