Cimco V5 editor

[gms1]

Not mastercam specific but I'm hoping someone here can answer my question.

 

I added a new machine type for editing posts and I setup the colors the way I wanted them. I registered the pst extension with that machine type hoping it would open those color settings when I opened a post but it's not doing it. When I open a post file it still treats it as an ISO/Milling file. Is there any way to make the setting stick with the pst extensions?

make sure you click on the file type first in setup then pick the colors

When the file is closed the file type is remembered for that file. Open the file, change the file type to Post and then close the file using the x. If you double click on a pst file and it has not been opened before in Cimco it should open with file type you have defined in the setup.

 

I prefer letter colours with Lathe work and modal colours with Mill. What preferences do other people have?
