Where or where has my "OK" button gone?

[mikeqes]

Happy Friday everyone,

I Installed X2 on a new computer this week and

for some reason the "OK" button that shows up to approve geometry you have created is not coming up and I have to hit "enter" instead. I must have something not set up right. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks,

Mike

I presume you are talking about the ribbon bar and the green check box when you create geom like lines and such?

 

I took my ribbon bar off where it was docked on mine, then somewhere else on the icon bars at the top I right clicked, go to toolbar states, and reload a state, such as 2D Toolpaths. I believe it comes preset with the ribbon bar docked under the main icon bars at the top.

Thanks for the help Randy.

What I noticed now is that instead of showing the "ok" "apply" and "help" button's on the tool bars it is showing a button that drop's down a menu with these options. Must be a setting I have to change somewhere.

 

Thanks!

At start up, Mastercam queries the screen resolution of your monitor. If the current resolution is such that a ribbon bar will not be able to display its entire contents on the screen, Mastercam adds a "chevron" (>>) at the end of the ribbon bar to indicate this condition. The only work around is to change your screen resolution so that the ribbon bars will fit.

Thanks,

I never would have figured that one out!

I will upgrade when they install the "easy" button.

Hi Mike,

 

Not that this will help you out now, but I will make sure that we document the chevron-on-the-ribbon-bars thing better in the Help and the Reference Guide.

 

Thanks for bringing this to our attention!
