ALT-T

[polishman]

Everytime I open up a file all the toolpaths SHOW up on the sccreen(lots of blue and yellow lines).How can i set this to stay off.The allt-t get rid of it but i have to hit those each time.

Be careful when you save your file that there are no toolpaths showing. I've noticed that if I save a file with toolpaths showing, they're on the next time I open the file.

I would think there is a setting to turn it off

polishman in the operation manager there is a icon

that toggles this.

I am attending training at Prism Engineering (dealer) this week and I queried this today with the instructor (Matt). Matt explained what I should have thought of... When the file is open with a machine def, all toolpaths remain shown unless you use the alt-t or the new icon to hide them.

I found this moments ago...

You can quickly select "Design" from the machine type menu and work without turning the paths of via alt-t or the new icon.

Hope that helps? It's an extra mouse click here but remember that it was 3 clicks to back out of the ops manager before.

One more thing...

Upon returning to the ops manager, any click in the ops manager turns Mill back on! No menu needed to re-select Machine Def file.

 

My tiny question...

Wouldn't it be nice if we didn't have to re-size the ops manager to accomodate lengthy operation names such as those on the tutorial files? It'd be nice to be able to double click on the edge of the manager to size it up quickly or for the ops manager to appear sized up and I'd be more inclined to size it down if desired.

IMHO

oh well it is what it is!
