Question:

How do I line up the part and CLI file when I import them to QuantAM?

Applies to:

  • Export
  • Slicing

Answer:

QuantAM has no context menu option to switch to Part Coordinate System for CLI files, but you can still use the Part Coordinate System. To turn it on in Renishaw QuantAM:

  1. Open App Settings.
  2. In the Coordinate System Expander, Enable the Part Coordinate System option.
  3. Import the CLI files.

You can see the CLI files placed on the layout for their coordinate system in the Layout Stage. However, this doesn’t change their visibility in the Design Stage.
