Question / Issue: convg tool travel moves #27

Closed adrianbear closed 8 years ago

adrianbear commented 8 years ago

Hi, It appears the convg tool does not differentiate between print and travel moves. I have converted a gcode file from Simplify3d to upcode and then back to gcode and the Simplify3d previewer shows the travel only lines in with the normal print lines (i.e. even when I uncheck the "Travel moves" check box). It does not do this on the original gcode file though.

I am hoping this is an insignificant bug in the convg tool and not a bug in the transcoder?

Thanks Adrian

Hi,

It's not convg,it is your viewer (Simplify3D) which does not differentiate between them. In their own gcode to put a lot of comments to distinguish between features types and move types.

If you use RepetierHost for viewing the G-Code it will differentiate correctly between them.
