I know that advance steel can produce NC1 files so that is why i am posting here
I don't use Advance Steel I do However use AutoCAD 2007 but sometime its more of a hassle
I have a DXF Generator that I use With it too
We Get .NC1 files from our detailer
and I would like to know if I can manipulate a hole in to a slot I have searched and searched and can not find this information
first attachment is the original file(screenshot HSS31.png) and the second (screenshot HSS31test.png) is what I tried that did not change anything
I am trying to change the original 9/16 hole into a 13/16 x 1 slot
If this makes sense to anyone please help

Hi
Due the fact that a Hole, in Advance Steel, was generated by a Macro, after you generated the drawings and the NC1 file. Inside the Advance Steel environment you can not edit the dimensions of the hole.
In this case I suggest you Explode the drawing and follow the work to AutoCAD or other software to edit...
Good luck

Hi,
NC1 files are just glorified text files. So they are easy to edit manually if you know the code.
For a slotted hole try to match the above image.
1= X coordinate
2= Y coordinate
3= slot width (hole diameter)
4= always zero for a slotted hole
5= the letter l for Lima (not a figure 1) means a slotted hole
6= length of straight portion of hole
7= extra width beyond hole diameter
8=angle of the hole from X direction.
So I think yours should be:-
v20.00 50.00 20.63 0.00l 4.77 0.00 0.00

Thank You
This is Exactly what I was Looking for
I thought Slots Were 0.001 so it never worked
thank you for clearing that up for me
