Ops Mgr & Manual Entry

[Dave Ball]

Does anyone know how to keep the manual entry code from showing the first 20 or so characters in the ops mgr? I have my display settings just right but this forces my ops mgr window to be far too wide and I can't find a setting in the display settings to control this.

Right click in the OP Manger and uncheck OPeration type.

 

that is the only way I can see to do this

I have mine setup with "operation type" turned off. I name my toolpaths (using the comment box) according to what they are doing for easier managing later. because of that, Showing operation type is redundant info. That will eliminate your problem.

Example:

Spot drill 10-32 holes (you know at first glance it's a drilling cycle)

It takes a little extra time but I find it much better in the long run to spend the time up front.

Thanks guys thats the only solution I could find also. It works, but I was trying to shorten up the manual entry and not the rest of the operations. Oh well, you win some and you lose some.
