[QUOTE="CoolHandLuke, post: 300924, member: 4850"] the spatial orientation of the tooth, when exported from 3shape, is controlled exclusively by the dongle. updates to 3shape also update the dongle. in no uncertain terms I am telling you 3shape has no interest in uniformly exporting crowns with uniform spatial orientation. your CAM software will do better however, if you go into your 3shape control panel and use .pts margin line files. this will help the cam to identify margins (most of the time) remember that Dental CAM such as the one you are using is a CAM that attempts to simplify the process for the average user, to make it almost easy enough to just nest the file, and go. it is not always possible for this very advanced method of CAM automation to account for all orientation issues, faulty files, or such things as mismanaged or upside-down CAM. it is not an AI. I have reviewed your Dropboxed files and I can say with certainty the orientation issues you are facing are because of 3shape's export function, contained within the dongle.I wish you the best of luck to fix it, because I don't know anyone who has ever done that.
