This is file specific, depends how the file was last saved....

 

I find it, if select ALL paths, ALT+T on and ALT+T off it'll stay

You need to choose it every time you launch. It is NOT a persistent setting.

 

It'll just become a part of your "brain" startup setting in Mcam(along with 50 other things that should be set, but never are).

It already is... that's why I want it to stay on.

I wish you could lock this also. That is usually the first thing I hit when I open a file.

You guy's are talking about turning it off, right?  It drives me nutz having to turn them off everytime I open a file!  I really don't see the use, if I want to see it, I'll just backplot and skip to the end.

Not exactly, I'm talking about it only shows the path you have highlighted so that when you arrow key up/down you can flip thru the paths and see what only what is selected.

 

I guess I'm just too ingrained in other softwares to get on board with all this extra clicking to see my paths.

Same with me. I always want it to show the selected path only.

I don't want to see the toolpath on the screen, it's just clutter. If I need to see something I backplot it. Otherwise, get it the hell off my screen because it's just a nuisance.

I just toggle them on and off with "T" for what I want to see or not see.

My gripe is I always, first thing when I open a file, have to toggle them off. And there's no ryhme nor reason as to which one displays. Seems like a bug new to x7 or x9... don't remember this before

I dunno, I select all of my paths, turn the off, save my file, shut down, re-open my file, no toolpaths showing

 

Just tried it twice to make sure I wasn't just seeing things

[kunfuzed]

Will have to double check what I said... I'm also in X9

Yep... looks like I was wrong.  It does respond to how it was last saved.  I think I thought this was a problem because we use PDM Software, and if you're not checking the file out, it's not changing... of course. Lol

Ditto that. The last thing I do is deselect everything.
