Initially, PowerMill uses a default template set within the installation folder. To select a custom template set, modify the default location to point to the desired folder:
- If your templates have the same names as the templates in the default set, click
in the
NC Program Header field, and locate the
Header.html template in your own folder.
PowerMill automatically finds the rest of the templates.
- If the names of your templates do not match the default set, then you must provide the file path for each of the templates you are planning to use. The type of the selected template must always match the field.
Warning: Selecting your template in the wrong field brings unpredictable results. For instance, if you want to use a summary template type, but have selected it under the
Toolpath field, the
<summaryrow> tags do not resolve when you create setup sheets.
You can select up to five different templates, but they must belong to the same set. To view a path to the currently selected template set:
- Click File tab > Options > Customise Paths.
- In the
PowerMill Paths dialog, from the list, select
Setup Sheets Template Paths. This displays the path to the currently selected template.
- Click Close.
