Origin Placement Issues
Upgraded to v4.50 on a Mac. Now manually setting the origin coordinates does not work. Also, snapping origin to an object reference point no longer works. Downgraded to v4.42 to restore usability.

Thank you for your feedback. The Mac version is still giving us some issues and we are currently working on the bug fix release.
We are sorry you had to downgrade. Please give it another shot when the release v4.51 next week.
Best regards,

Milled Text
I want to place text on a panel that is in front of eliminated plexi. The text in the panel should therefore be completely milled, not just engraved. How do I set this in the front panel designer?
Thanks,
StijnPosted By: Stijn on Feb 27, 2016 02:17PM Category: Front Panel Designer
Hi Stijn,
There is no option in Front Panel Designer for text all the way milled through the panel.
However, one alternative is using the import of a dxf file representing the test and use the "Free Contour" tool in Front Panel Designer. The other option is to design the engraving as needed with the "Text" tool and leave us a note to mill the letters through. This will result into a small additional charge for the modification.
Best regards,

won't load
After upgrading to the latest version, FPD won't load now. When I try to re-install I get an error message that it can't open the .exe file.

Hello,
What operating system are you using? Can you please provide a screenshot of the error message?

Best regards,

ReplyProblem solved. A re-boot cured the problem. I believe there was something interfering with program. I don't know what though.

mouse scrolling reversed
Just updated to 4.50, on a mac. The mouse scrolling is working opposite of the global settings. The graphics also seem a lot worse than they used to be - I find it nearly impossible to consistently line up objects using the mouse. Hope there wil an update to address this soon!

Hello,
We are aware of mouse scrolling problems and working on it.
We implemented anti-aliasing for minimizing the distortion artifacts. You can turn it off in Settings->Interface
We apologize for the inconvenience and will keep you posted on the bug fix update.
Best regards,
Diane

ReplyActually, the Mac OS X version has numerous problems, including random image jumping, reference point highlighting which doesn't line up with the object reference points. This version has become unusable. Can you provide a link to a slightly older version?
