Setting Default Sheet Quantity and Thickness

• For all the sheet sizes (Standard Size, Custom Size and Sheet DXF), the default thickness is defined in the DefaultValues.ini file.

• For all the sheet sizes, the default quantity to be displayed in the Sheet Data tab is defined in the DefaultValues.ini file.

Editing Sheet Quantity and Thickness in the DefaultValues.ini file:

1. Open the file named DefaultValues.ini located in the CAMWorks Installation folder.
2. Observe the section named [SheetData]. The default quantity and thickness for a sheet are defined in this section.
3. The default quantity is always assigned as an integer. Edit the quantity value to apply a new default value for quantity of the sheets.
4. The thickness value is defined in both millimeters (MMGS units) and inches (IPS units). Edit these values to change the default value of thickness. Based on the units selected, CAMWorksNesting picks the appropriate value as default value.
5. For example, to assign a new default thickness of 50mm and a quantity of '2', the values in the DefaultValues.ini will be changed as follows:

[SheetData]

;Quantity only Integers, real values are not supported

Quantity = 2

Thickness-MM = 50

Thickness-Inch = 0.1
