Custom Tools Not Displaying Correctly In Transform

[GoetzInd]

Hi Guys,

       I am having an issue verifying ops with custom tools during a transform op in 2018. The tool displays correctly when verifying the operation by itself, but when verifying the op through a transform, the tool reverts to it's Mastercam properties, not it's custom profile. The two pictures below are of the exact same tool and operation. One is when verifying by itself (correct), and one is of the tool when verifying the transform op that uses this tool. I remember having a similar issue in  X9 but only when backploting custom tools in a tranform op. 

    Any ideas? this is basically sends us back to X9 if we can't get it working as almost every program we have uses both custom tools and transforms.

So far I have tried:

-Forced regen of all ops. Same result.

-Re-creating tool from scratch. Same result.

-Creating new tranform ops. Same result.

 

TIA

Mike

Transform  has issues ,

The one that has bitten us in MC 2018

is  Stock  to leave as it resets itself to zero

(from whatever you had it set too)

Its fixed in update 1

When using Transform try using the Create new operations and geometry check box at the top right of the window.

It doesn't fix the issue but it will allow for a good verification.

Hi Tony,

      What is the build number of update 1? Is it in beta? I don't see it on the website.

 

Thanks,
