Curious, can you use a straight flute endmill with 4th axis and create a gear tooth? Never looked at how the 4th axis works in GM or GT.

Thanks again,

Downloaded and installed latest test version. GT no longer has the freezing issue.GM version shows as 4.900. Should it show 4.90.02? GT version shows 1.02.

Thanks,

Tried what bosr stated (without having Gleason selected) and GT hangs when i select Type:Helical,Knuckle or Herringbone then select Bevel Params: Helical

Art,
This time during install i selected both 64bit and 32bit redistributables. Noticed shortcut icon for GT changed from the 'Arrow over Earth' to a black background GM shortcut icon'. And that the about window shows V1.02 and that its licensed to me, did not show this before.
All buttons in GUI ...

Hi Art,
Downloaded latest Rev and about in GM is 4.9 and GT is V1.0.
I did not uninstall old version first, should I?

Hi Art,
Installed fine but i notice when comparing the GUI in your video to my GUI, i have the following buttons grayed out.....
Indicators,Move on Shaft, Move on Gear and some others but cant tell what they are in the video. Attached screen shots.

Is this supposed to be like this?

Thanks,
Troy

Its something, i understand what you are saying but both cams being attached to one another keeps be from grasping just how it works  ;D
Like you said ill need to make one to get it.
