You don't need to select all faces if you are doing an alignment, you only need to select one flat face. If you do want to select all faces for some reason you only need to turn off Face Selection, which his along the small ribbon below the main top menu.
Do you know how to modify post processors? I don't have 4th or 5 axis in Gibbs, but I can to rotating index. Just can't post it. Gibbs won't help unless I update on maintenance.
Hi Travis. Yes, if you have a post form Gibbs they do require you to be on Maintenance. Reason why is the new posts they modify are made to work on the newest software, so they don't necessarily make a post to work on old versions. But, good news is that your Gibbs program has a program called "Post Haste". There are a number of templates for post processors that you can use and you can edit to your hearts content. Depending on what version you are running Post Haste is usually in c:/programdata/3Dsystems/gibbscam/the version you are running, then look for a folder called Post Haste. Lots of post processors there. In your help menu there is a manual on how to modify.
What are you importing? A solid model or wire geometry? Also make sure your license has the ability to import solid models. You need at least the Solids Import license.
Not sure if I understand your question. Once you import a model or 2D drawing you may notice the part is off the screen. That is usually because the origin of the part is not within the boundaries of the part size on your screen. If that's the case just go to Modify, then choose "shrink wrap". This will wrap stock around your part. If they shrink-wrap is still gray, then means your part did not come in.
This guy knows his stuff!
Thank you, everything worked out! and before I converted the Solidworks files to parasolid
Tell me how to select all the faces of the part, double-click moves the part to body bag..

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials ok, I've tried all of the posts related to my control, but none support rotary axis. I'll look at that help menu. Thanks.
Thanks for this video.... :)
Thank you for watching!
Hi, why am I not active in importing a part? it glows gray.

@@Itspronouncednuclear Thanks.I want to import body models from Solidworks
@@petr4655 You can directly open solidworks bodies. Just click the drop-down menu and choose Solidworks. The extension is .sldprt.
