Missing toolbar

[spade117]

I lost the toolbar at the top of the screen that had the coordinates of where my cursor is. Does anyone know what it is called or how to find it? I undocked it, and it disappeared.

Does it come back if you exit and restart mcam?

The other thing to try, go into settings...toolbar states and on the left select your whatever toolbar you use and hit LOAD.

I don't know the name of the toolbar that is missing.

Did you save your toolbar configuration and give it a name? I saved mine as johns toolbar,(my Default) so when I select Setting..toolbar states on the left side of the window it shows 2D, 3D, 4-5 Axis etc and it also shows John toolbar. If you named your toolbar config, not the individual toolbar itself, you should be able to load it back up.

 

 

I think the name of the toolbar your missing is the Auto Cursor toolbar, but I can't find it listed as an option.

Try creating geometry using a sketcher option. Creat Line and see if it pops up in you graphics window

I had the same thing happen and I had to load a different toolbar state and then modify that one to what I wanted. It is the autocursor and it does not come back once you delete it, but it does show up when you start to create geometry, I tried to just live with it like that, but just could not get used to having it that way. Why is there not an option to replace the auto cursor tool bar? There are options for the buttons of it but not the whole bar...

Once it comes back up when creating geometry, you can redock the toolbar and it will stay there.

Just some more info on the AutoCursor behavior. By default, AutoCursor is open and docked in the toolbar section of Mastercam. It can be undocked by double clicking anywhere on the ribbon bar or single clicking and dragging it to the graphics window. Once AutoCursor is undocked, you can easily drag and drop it anywhere on your graphics window as a horizontal window. You can dock it again by dragging and dropping the window anywhere in the toolbar section or by double-clicking the title bar.

 

Here's the kicker. If you undock AutoCursor when you are not using a function that requires it, AutoCursor will disappear. It will reappear each time you initiate a function that requires interaction. For example, creating geometry using Sketcher functions.

 

My solution.........I keep it docked!
