When trying to carve, Easel lets me enter the bit diameter, but the button to allow me to move on to homing isn’t showing up. Interestingly, when I try to choose a bit by picture (1/8), it goes blue until I click elsewhere and then the “Other” bit picture goes blue instead.
Tried restarting Firefox, tried restarting the computer. I can only conclude that there’s been a programming change pushed through Easel since I last carved on Monday 12/21. Any ideas?
It’s large enough that it slows my computer down, but it’s never taken more than a few seconds, maybe 30, to move past this screen. I’m now looking at 20+ minutes, which is highly irregular. Are you able to get past it with this project?
In my experience with easel, I have found that tabs bring it to its knees. When you have a lot of parts, it kills performance. When I have a big file like that, I break it into smaller files. I’d make 3 files out of that project and try again.
edit: after letting it sit for a while, it crashed Chrome.
I broke it into 2, and that worked. It’s not ideal, something must have been changed in the programming since the last time I did it, but at least there’s a workaround. Thanks @JDM!
It’s too bad my programming knowledge is so limited, I know he was looking for more programmers. I’d offer to work part time from home, but I doubt he would want to bring in someone who’s barely proficient in C and VHDL…
