V9 View Management

[Davidgil]

Hopefully a simple question on the view management in Version 9. I'm having troubles getting the Cplane and Tplane to update when I change my Gview (I want them all to be the same). Currently I have to update the Gview first and then update the Cplane. The Tplane seems to stay set to what ever the Cplane is OK. In my system config, I have checked the box next to Update Cplane and Tplane when changing Gview, but this seems to have no effect (It worked fine in version 8). Is there something else I need to do.

 

Thanks for you time,

Dave

You will need to setup the new plain in the WCS by right clicking and using the Create you can set cplain & tool plain together.

Thanks for the reply CADCAM. I think I must be missing something here. Lets say I want to cut the top and bottom of a block. I click Gview->Named->Create - and create a view of the top of the block with work offset of 0. I then do the same thing and create a bottom view with a work offset of 1. If I then click on Cplane->Named or Tplane->Named or WCS, the viewmanager again pops up as it did when I created the view, and the top and bottom views I created are already there. I can go to Gview->Named and select bottom and hit OK and my view will change to bottom, but not my Cplane or Tplane. I need to hit Cplane->Named and select bottom and OK and then my Cplane and Tplane will switch to bottom also. I want to tie them together so that if I switch my Gview, my Cplane and Tplane will also switch.

Hopefully I'm making some sense. Any ideas?

Thanks again for your time,

Dave.
