Good news everyone! We’ve released a new feature in Easel that allows you to import, validate and visualize g-code generated by other programs, and send it to your X-Carve or Carvey. Currently we support g-code from Fusion 360, MeshCAM, and Vectric products (including V-carve, Cut2D, and Aspire). The post-processors will all be available on the “Import g-code” file menu item.
If you do not use one of those products, we’ve created a g-code spec document that describes the format of g-code that Easel will import.
To import a g-code file, go to File → Import g-code.
@paulkaplan - I Installed the post processor from the link on file/import G-Code…it is for a roughing pass for a small cross which is approx 5.5 x 4 inches I get the following…
Which program are you using? Can you attach the gcode file you are trying to import?
Judging from the error message, I would check to make sure that your origin point is set at the bottom left corner of the material. This is a limitation that we have to think about some more, but let me know if doing that helps.
It borked on a file from estlcam. Remember to tell who ever programmed it that humans normally start at line 1, not line 0 , so when it generates the error message to add one to the line number It’s complaining about line 8 which is blank space
I’m going to create a new topic for each other CAM system so that people can discuss what it would take to conform to the spec separately. (Here is that topic [gcode import] estlcam)
