Hello,
When cutting, can we view the active layer ?
And can we see the progress of the cutting live on the screen ?
Yes, look at the Console window while it is running. Bear in mind that the program is streaming, so what you see in the window and where the laser is actually burning will likely not match. The laser buffers the commands while it is running.
No. There is no actual position feedback from the laser while running. Some software will appear to do that, but is done through handling the streaming differently. The Lightburn method allows you to make edits in your program, like changing a name for the next burn, while it is feeding the GCode to the controller.
Sorry, but I don’t see any trace of the laser in the window. There must be a checkbox??
It’s incredible that it doesn’t indicate which layer it’s working on, so it’s hard to follow the progress of the work.
if you have any clue, i’m interested
Because there us none…
Did you enable Show All in the Console window?
Some things are easy to find, others not so much. Lightburn is a stunningly powerful software package. Be patient and use research.
