Clear Plane Leaving Z Axis Limits

derekvegeta
The clear planes in my program do not want to co-operate today. I'm using a read point for the manual alignment, as far as I can see I did not forget to translate my Z. DCC_ORG Is a circle that takes 3 sample hits on the Z=0 surface I want. The clearplane at the end is where I'm getting the error.

  • A Clearp declaration will use the current alignment to set the clearance plane. Always keep this in mind when you're building alignments that could have varying Z locations, as the clearance plane will not change unless you redeclare it under the new alignment.

    Also, when building alignments, unless you're trying to accomplish something very specific, the rule of thumb is to always level, rotate, translate in that order. Not following this rule will lead to some tricky situations where your origin is off from where you think it should be.
