I can still click on the operations that are at the top still visible on the screen, just cant scroll down to the operations out of sight. Am I the only one with this problem?

Are you sure the Focus is still in the Operations Manager?yes, it seems to happen when i copy operations, and the only way to get it back is to restart mastercam, I guess im just lucky it still allows me to save my file before i restart. This hapens alot to me, I guess it must be somthing wrong with my install or somthing.
Thanks, but when i go to print i dont have any options to turn shading off or hide hidden lines, i only have the option of colour or not. am i missing somthing?
I cant pinpoint what is causing this but every once and a while i loose my scroll in operations manager. has anyone had this happen or has this topic already been covered?
Im actully doing a setup sheet using solids, and even with my shading set to translucent the notes dont show up very well, is there a way to make your text stand out over the solids?
I was just curious if I can set my shade setting independent on differnt solids. I want my tombstone to be translucent, and my parts to be solid. is this possible?
I have seen this but i think it was backshift messing around with my settings. when I got it back I saved my toolbar state so it wouldnt happen again. does anyone else use your pc?
Yes maintence covers new relieses, I have asked my reseller, and he told me it was covered. Im looking forward to the new surface trim options and new toolpaths.
I have a part that I have to probe a few of the offsets, I set the first offset, and I want two other workoffsets to have the same Y value. I was told that I could do this by changing a macro varible to be the same as my first workoffset. I dont see any varibles for my work offsets. is there another way to update all offsets to have the same y value? the controller is a mazak 640m
I had that problem monday on a surface, then I did it to a solid no problem. I could creat a edge on most edges, just seemed like 1 or to were giving me trouble, just assumed I had a problem with the surface so i re did it in a solid

I am having problem to surface a .500 Rad around a inside cavity 49 x 10" size with .25" rad corner I am curious why you are using a 3/16 ballnose to finish this part if there is a .25 corner rad, I would have to see the part to know what pass to use, I use flowline quite a bit, and high speed finish raster works well also. you may need a pencil tool path to get a better finish on the outside edges, I also use bullnose endmills as much as possible to finish my surfaces. they work alot better then a ballnose depending on the surface shape.

The only thing that solved this was copying the hard drive off of a pc that doesnt get the error to the one that does and it solved the problem do you mean to copy the entire drive, windows and everything? is there a program you used to do this or somthing?
I was actully thinking about buying a hard drive to match the one in this computer and mirroring it with a raid utility. has anyone tried this and how does it work with mastercam? would that slow the system down alot? and is the backup easily accessable?
