Same Plane - Different Programs

[drafting3]

Hi Guys,

 

Been a while since I've been on here, but I ran into something recently that is a real pain...

 

Since updating to X9, I've found that sometimes multiple operations on the same plane want to create their own program. Serious pain in the a$$.... I have to delete the operations and rebuild them from scratch to fix the problem so I can produce a single NC file.

 

 

Any ideas?

thanks!!! that fixed it.

 

but wtf... is there an option somewhere that's been set wrong? I never want multiple programs for the same plane, and if I do i'll control that.

This usually happens when a program was created on a different computer that is using a different NC file path, or over different versions of MC.

i did just move my network share to a new hard drive. network path is the same, but local path is different.

It happens for a variety of reasons, the specifics are not important.  It is a very simple procedure to correct, use JParis's steps and move on...
