Im haveing trouble with ETSLCAM. I changed the size of my lwr v4 and need to rotate the drawing and the tool paths to fit my new work space. I need to rotate it 90 deg. but i cant seam to move the drawing layer and the tool paths all at the same time. so they all match and are to scale. right now no matter what select option i chose it does only one at a time.here are pic of what im talking about.
Is your X the longer axis on your machine? This is not the normal at all and that’s why I ask. Hoping you just got your dimensions backwards when you set it in estlcam.
Yes it is. It used to be set ups a full sheet size. But needed room in the garage. So I put it up on the bench. I like to use it for the kids making foam rc airplanes from flight test plans. We use the cnc and etslcam to cut out ready board from the dollar tree. So it only needed to cut a 30”*20” foam board.
So all my etslcam drawing i did where for the larger cnc machine setup. Now I need to flip the direction of how the machine cuts the project.

no matter what i try i can only move the drwinging layer. then i have to move the toolpaths seperatly and try to align them up.
Are you saying that none of the three (edited) methods turn all paths and drawing objects red (selected and ready to Rotate)?

That is exactly what it should do. Click the link in on that message and it will open another browser window. The captive portal that you are in there is limited and doesn’t function correctly, that’s why they put that message.
i do click that link and it works but after about 5 to 10 min it gives me red box. then i get disconected and have to connect back to the machines wifi. not sure why it keeps disconecting me.
