ALT C doesn't work

[gcode]

I've got a new machine at work.

Its had Mastercam V9 MR0904 installed in it for about a week.

Everything seens to work correctly, but I just noticed that I can't launch chooks.

I hit ALT C and nothing happens.

I know the ALT key is OK cause ALT F1 works.

 

I went into Screen config and set it to launch

TPCFG.dll at startup and it did that OK so

MC is seeing the Chooks folder.

 

I have no clue what to look for. Any ideas out there???

Screen/Config/Toolbar-Keys

 

Look for Execute C-Hook and assign it to ALT C

[gcode]

It is. The first thing I tried was launching with a default cfg file. Very strange ??????

Very strange. Try mapping it to a different key. That will tell you if it's the key assignment or the software not doing what it's supposed to.

 

I don't know what or if there's a menu path for running c-hooks, but I believe you can assign that function to a button or the custom RMB menu.

Brain fart

 

I was setting up Hot Keys for my dual screens yesterday in the NVIDIA Desktop manager

 

ATL ` is jump to the left screen

ALT 1 is jump to right screen

 

I set ALT C as "collaspe to desktop" doooh!!

 

Deleted the hotkey setting and chooks launch.

What a surprise

I've never messed around with the hotkeys with my dualview...do you find it useful?

[gcode]

Yes,

You can move whole apps or just windows inside apps to the other screen.

 

I normally run Mastercam on my right screen.

If I want to open my Operations manager and still see my whole Masteracm screen I hit Alt` and the Opes Manager is on the left screen.

I can use it there or hit Alt 1 and bring it back.

 

You can set up almost any keys you want and there

are dozens of functions available for hot keys

but Switching screens are the only 2 I use.
