I have quite a bit. a little less so, now on that I am using 2024. Only workaround I have found is to reboot Mastercam and regenerate after reloading. Rarely I will have to delete the stock model operation to get it to stop.

I Knew I was being dumb somewhere, Thank you so much. spent most of my morning banging my head into my keyboard I will give it a fresh go in the morning.

Ok, I am dumb or brain farting..... I for the life of me cannot figure out what I am doing wrong here as I can not get Process Hole to recognize that i have tool paths in here. Where has my brain turned off? Hole Ops.mcam

I know exactly how you feel. Would be Nice. I just usually leave the force tool change off, then do a 'Manual Entry' as code before hand and manually program my stop and tool change from a template I have made up, were all I do is change the tool info on. Sucks but at least it works

So I made a Custom Ribbon (general items use the most) as I am sure most have. This is what it looks like. However when I reload a new instance of MC it appears as follows: A little annoying, but all I do then is Right click the ribbon, then "Customize the Ribbon" then changing nothing I click "Ok", My custom ribbon then returns to the top version (the way I want it) I do not have those view managers added to my custom ribbon. Yet a new instance re-adds them every time. So is this a possible bug, or my settings, or my brain? (Am I dumb ) This is ver 2023 update 4

Alternately can use the settings button in the Auto Cursor bar.

Depending on what your doing maybe a little more VRM? Other then that looks good, I'd personally go with a tower as they last longer and usually cheaper to build, I'm so done with laptops (I understand not everyone can)

We were talking about a feature in "Toolpath Transform"

Been around for at least 2021 and 2022, cant confirm any older then that as that's as long as I have been doing this

Glad I was of some help!

You might try the "Create new operations and geometry" button then. Will be a fast Copy and Past then you will have more control over the program names.

When I first get up my brain cells stay behind for a few hours so they were not around to die.

I do not know much about nesting. (I still have a lot of MC to learn yet, was only trained to get jobs done the rest is on me to learn ) But. I have a Machine that doesn't like tool changes so when I post, it has to be a separate program for each tool. I am able to Toolpath Transform with a different program and Toolpath Transform is pretty powerful at translating and moving NC or Geometry. I hope this helps.

Just read it when you wake up before having coffee...

I'll give it a shot thanks! Maybe it will stop a few of the other bugs I just ignore as well Edit; Seems to be working thanks!
