Version X operations manager going weird

[wgd]

Has anyone had problems with the operations manager breaking up the operations into several different programs when posting? Is it a setting somewhere? Also how can you copy and paste the operations to a new tool group and not have the tool numbers automatically renumbered?

I have had pretty good luck pre-selecting my operations to be copied (little green checks), then right-click dragging into the new Toolpath Group, then selecting "Copy After".

WGD,

 

For your posting issue, you need to make sure that the NC file name is the same for all your operations.

 

To do so, select the operations you want and right clik on your mouse -> Edit selected operations -> Change NC file name...

 

Hope that this will help.

 

Have a nice day,

[wgd]

Thanks.

I will have a look at that.

[wgd]

Yes you are right. Thanks again

This is a bug and has been fixed for the Maint release.

I have updated Using MCX Mill Level 3 SP1 Update 1 but still can't copy and paste or drag operations into a new tool group without it being renumbered. It would appear to be something to do with reading from the default tool library???

Thad,

 

I thought you had a topic started on the whole renumbering issue, but I can't seem to find it.

 

Could you post a link?

 

I tried to duplicate the problem here, but my tools aren't renumbering like the rest of you.

 

Thanks,

Sorry Thad, I guess it was someone else.
