White around folders in op manager

[Programinator]

anyone getting this whit around the folders. It only happens when i copy multiple operations. Select more than one operation and right click and drag. If i dont do that it stays normal.

Yup, I have experienced this "occasionally" since I began using X+ to change my Op manager back ground color. I use the Mastercam way to do this now and I still see this occasionally.

 

I learned using the X+ version that when that happened a crash was coming, so I still save my file at that point, shut down and restart MCAM.

Yep I get it all the time. It's distracting but I haven't noticed any problems because of it.

have not noticed a problem either.....was just wondering if it was a prob with mcam or if its a video prob

Here also, It is a strange phenomenon.

I seem to get it when using multiple machine groups. Then it crashes and burns shortly after.

 

MC seems very unstable using multiple machine groups. I have alot of problems when having a mill group then a wire group then another mill group. It crashes most of the time. So, now I do all the mill ops in a file and all wire ops in a file to keep this from happening.

I've noticed this mainly when I open a file from V9. Haven't had any problems because of it as of yet.

Same problem here.

I have noticed it also. I believe the problem is when you copy (or add) a new machine group and then copy existing toolpaths to the new machine group. I have also seen it with converting files from V9. This appears to solve the problem most of the time. I go back to the toolpath machine group property, files tab, select the “Replace” button and reselect the current machine definition file and click “Open”. This reloads the machine definition files and solves the problem. I have noticed some of the machine definition information is missing or wrong and appears like the machine definition information gets corrupted by copying machine groups.

That is an old bug from the beginning of X and is long time reported.

You can reproduce the bug when you copy multiple operations with the right mouse button (drag and drop).

The problem is that most users doesn't realize the bug because they are using a white background in the OPMgr.

To avoid the bug, copy operations with Alt+C and insert them with Alt+V.
