operation manager word wrap

[Dennis Dielschneider from McCaytool]

Would anybody else like the opperation manager to word wrap so the manager would be narrower giving more real estate for your work area

I think the consensus around these parts has been for an undockable ops manager.

 

BTW, you can turn your op manager on/off when you don't need it.

Dennis,

The Display Options dialog box in the Toolpath Manager may help you clean up the displayed information a little.

That would be nice.

That may even be a good excuse to update X+ utility.

 

Word wrap would be most helpful !

the expensive cure for this is to get a widescreen monitor, then your ops manager can be pretty large while still having a vast graphics area. After having one I do not want to go back to a standard monitor, ever!

[Matthew Hajicek - Singularity]

I like both ideas. Optional word wrap, and undockable. I'd undock it and put in on my right-hand monitor (Mcam main on left). When I'm analyzing I often put the analyze window on the second monitor so that it doesn't get in the way of picking more geometry. I'd also like Ops and Solids to each be their own "toolbar" rather than two tabs of the same one, and if they're undockable I could have them side by side on the other monitor.

 

Roger, see if you can talk Brian into getting you a second screen, or dig up a spare. After using two screens you'll never want to go back to one. More is better! You can have Mcam on one, and be answering your tech support emails on the other, without having to flip between windows. It also can't be beat for post editing, where you have Mcam, your .pst, an .nc or two, and possibly post reference material, and you want to look at them all at the same time.

I like both ideas too but the word wrap would be my first choice.
