How to display a weld

#1
I am trying to do a welding operation on a part but I would like to display a where a weld has been done as the torch moves along the part. How can this be done?

Sounds like what you need is very similar to the paint macro, look in your robodk library / macros folder

If you edit that to create a bead in the same diameter that should do the trick

Hi Deo,

Colin is right, but you don't need to modify the "Paint" macro, we already created a "ArcStart" and "ArcEnd" macro to activate and deactivate a bead.

You can find this macro in "C:/RoboDK/Macros".

I couldn't get it to pop up so that I can have it "off" before using it in a program. I couldn't activate it like in SprayOn example provided in the documentation. The results is that I can't determine when it should be On or off.
