    Lathe usc will not update to dia. mode

    I recently changed to a new PC and since I have the USC for Diam. mode will not change to X Z coordinates stay's stuck in XYZ , things I have tried.

    Uninstalled BCC V26 reinstalled
    Defined a new lathe in machine set up
    Changed in preferences to lathe Dia. mode
    Tried making it the default no luck either


    I am lost at this point and the program is of no use to me in lathe mode, any help would be greatly appreciated

    Woffler,

    If you are trying to get the coordinate system to update to lathe mode, it is very simple. Go to Modules/Turning Mode and this will change the coordinate to X in Y and Z in X. You can set this to be the default under Preferences/Setting Default/Units.

    Thank You ,I had forgotten about the module button as it has been awhile since I used the lathe function of BBC.

    I mostly use another program for my lathe ,and I was trying to program all the part in one system.

    Again Thank You for your kind response
