X2 MR2 toolbar (icons disappearing)

[Mgrenier]

Hello all,

 

I have made myself some custom toolbars at the top of my screen. When I first start up MCAM, eveything come up perfectly. The problem comes when I minimize MCAM and go back to use it afterwards, some of the icons on my toolbar are missing. Anyone else seeing this problem?

 

P.S. Using Win2000 professional.

[3R!< W3NG3R]

Yes, I see it too.

Was thinking of deleting the toolbar and creating a new one. Haven't tried it yet though.

[Mgrenier]

Eric,

 

I tried that but it made no difference. Only thing that brings the icons back is if you move the toolbar in the graphics area and then move it back to where you want it.

Martin,

what resolution are you running on monitor? 1024x768 might be causing problem. Should be at least 1280x1024.

[Mgrenier]

Stephen,

 

It is 1280x1024. I tried creating a new toolbar but I did not rename it and it seems to work? I'll have to wait and see in the long run...

[Thad]

Just to clarify, this happens when you Minimize, not Restore?

Thad,

 

This happens when I minimize use another application and then bring open the MCAM application again. I never Resize my MCAM window so this can not be the problem.

 

Hope that clarifies a bit for you...

I have the same issue. Mine re-appear after I drag my cursor over them.

[bryan314]

Yep, We're seeing it too. It's kinda annoying.

 

XP machines.

With Toolbar icons set both large and small.

 

If you undock and redock the toolbar it'll temporarily restore the icons. It's a temp solution but better than restarting everytime.

 

I've already had some email exchanges with QC to figure it out. But No luck yet.

 

Please report this to [email protected] so they know it's more than one or two people and can get it figured out.

Martin,

 

How about if you don't minimize? For example, launch another application (or select an already open application from the taskbar). Or Alt+Tab to select the app you want to switch to. That way the windows get put on top of each other so you can freely switch between applications without ever minimizing anything. A workaround until it gets fixed...

Thad,

 

It makes no difference..

[Thad]

Then would you agree that the minimize function is not the root cause?

 

Thad

[Mgrenier]

Yep,

The minimize is not the culprit but I still get the icons to disappear...

[Thad]

Just trying to help troubleshoot.

 

Thad

[Mgrenier]

No problem Thad,

 

I understand that

Mine has been doing this for a while, mine is usually with the 2D toolpath toolbar some of the icons disappear but when I run the cursor back over them they usually reappear. I brought this up before and someone(can't remember who) had me change some of my video card settings, but I didn't any different results.

I'm chiming in too as having the same exact issues as Marting. Running XP Pro. I'm hoping it has something to do with my ATI Video card so I can get them to buy me a new one here. Who buys ATI in the first place? haha!

[Aaron Eberhard]

I've had this issue as well since I upgraded to X2MR2... I sent an email to QC about it as well.

[doyleg]

Been happening here since the upgrade to MR2. But I can't get mine to reappear at all. Never had a prob with any toolbars at all until now.

Try saving a toolbar state. Then right click in the menu bar area to Load a Toolbar State. A bit of a pain but it seems to work for me.

Does not work for me...

[daved]

Just drag the offending toolbar down into the main screen and reshape the box so that all the icons are running left to right. Now put the toolbar back where it was.

[doyleg]

Very good daved. worked great here!!!!!
