Error Message about Exiting Current Function

[Namliek_J@TheeCircle™]

My Mastercam Class keeps getting this error message when they try to do certain things like they sometimes attempt to verify or save. Any one else ever get this and does anyone know why we are getting it??? Any ideas on how to fix the error???

 

Exit current function before running new command.

Function not responding to MC_EXITFUNC request.

Please report error to dealer.

Be sure you are not in the middle of an operation. Click the "green baloon" to end selection before continuing on to another function. You could also just hit the esc key to exit any active functions.

When you say the "green balloon", do you mean the check mark???

I think he meant the "end selection" ball thingy

Because we were in verify when we got the error message a couple times, so the green balloon is not always present.

I have the same error right now. Apparently I got out of a funtion without actually exiting it. I think maybe I tried to go on to somethng else to quickly? ? ? Looks like I'll have to exit MC.

I had to use Windows Task Manager to quit MC Lost a little work.

I dont understand why the error message tells us to contact our dealer if we are just in the middle of a current function.

I found a way to save your file if you get stuck in Mastercam reading the message:

 

Exit current function before running new command. Function not responding to MC_EXITFUNC request. Please report error to dealer.

 

You have to press Alt+A and you get the AutoSave dialog, from which you can save your current MCX. Afterwards you certainly have to kill Mastercam pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete.

 

I hope sometime this would help someone.
