I have notice a major usability flaw with the G-Code Import.

If you g code already already has no “safety height”, Easel will force your Z-axis to be higher than it should.
If your g code has no M3 commands, I.E. no spindle, Easel will force your spindle to turn on.

Basically the G-Code import CANNOT be used with laser g-code.
I like the pre-flight features built into the “Carve…” button, but it would be nice to skip all those.

Oh I would love to have this capability! Would you please enable it for me?

JeffTalbot · February 15, 2016, 4:01pm

Hi @JeremyJohnstone,

You could try setting your safety height to 0 under “Machine / Advanced”
If you set your spindle control to “Manual” under “Machine,” Easel should not issue any M3 commands

Hi @JoshuaSnyder, you now have access!
