UCCNC lead in lead out edit ( CNC plasma)

[SaidAb]

In our shop we use UCCNC software for our hypertherm plasma. And we use another software as post processor, in this post processor I can edit the lead in and lead out for the parts in the DXF.
I want to edit the position of these lead in and lead out in the parts sometimes and not use the lead in lead out that are generated by the post processor software automatically, how can I do this ?
When I put lead in and lead out in the parts DXF file then open it using UCCNC, it automatically delete these lead in and lead out that I placed using another software ( pronest ) , and it creates new lead in lead out that are controlled by the post processor software we have.

I dot know about UCCNC but it sounds like its acting as a CAM program and you might not be able to change that
If UCCNC can run G-code and you can use another CAM then process the DXF through SheetCAM and just leave off the lead-ins and lead-outs and it should use the total DXF vector file/ The other options to just let SheetCAM do the lead-ins and outs. It gives you the option of setting the type and size and will let you move them around. If you use the nesting and place the parts using drag and rotate and the Duplicate it will duplicate the lead ins and outs on the master part . Doing a whole sheet is quick once you learn how to drag select parts or entire rows and step them down the sheet. I often easier to do the nesting in SheetCAM tha in a CAD or ALL-in-one program.

If UCCNC does not use G-code then you are pretty much stuck with what you have. Maybe David or someone that has seen UCCCNC control software can chime in/

This UCCNC uses gcode but it is like UCCNC has a lot of versions and users use different macros and for piercing for example there is a Macro M30 in my uccnc, in sheetcam maybe they use another macros , to enable or disable THC there is another macro , to put just a marking point in the metal, we use a Macro names m405 , for G00 and g01 it is the same I guess everywhere , cutting speed changes for different sheet thickness and in corners we use a function to slow the cutting speed. All these details must be considered in another software that will generate gcode for my uccnc , if I just copy past a gcode from sheetcam or other software to my uccnc in work , there will be mistakes and errors of compatibility that's why I want to keep everything as it is and only see the possibility of editing the lead in and lead out position as for now my uccnc generates them automatically and sometimes it is not suitable for tight plates where I have 1-2 mm left from the plate or the plate isn't enough for the cut because of the lead in lead out position, because sometimes 5-10 mm makes a huge difference.
