I have also had the deleting entities sticking around on a merged file. It seems to be intermittent. Screen/Regen is useless because as soon as you move (rotate/pan) with the mouse it is back. I usually save the file, click new file then reopen the one I was working on. I've also had the copy geo from one level to anther using copy in the level manager. Another fun one is Transfer/Copy and transfer to origin and had them do nothing.
I'm getting kind of the opposite. I open a file, and have zero entities on levels that have stuff on them. Refresh level list does nothing. Anyone else come across this one in X4?
Most of what I've seen when using templates is you the template into the file you want. This usually goes smooth. It is when you merge the exsisting into the template when the problems occur.
Just drag the offending toolbar down into the main screen and reshape the box so that all the icons are running left to right. Now put the toolbar back where it was.
I am running x64 and it runs pretty much like normal. MC doesn't run in a true 64bit mode so you don't get the advantages of it. I have noticed less crashes though. Better hardware has something to do with that. I also first installed in the Program Files (x86) folder and it didn't like that. Reinstalled it right on the C-drive and it is happy now.
You can always have your customers color code your holes for you ie tapped=green, holes=blue, tight fit=red. When you open the SW file in MC, the features will be a simular color. If it needed some tight or screwball callout, they had to specify by some other means.
Back to the original question, I have my hot keys set to semi-match the view minipulation keys. Alt1 for gview top and ctrl1 cplane top, alt2 and ctrl2, alt5 and ctrl5. Ctrl7 I have mapped for the command "construction plane by name". These are in the key mapping category, construction plane. Hope this is more of what you are seeking.
"· Possibly combining text and icons on vertical dialog boxes."
How about making this one an option. (text on/off)
Overall, things are getting better. I look for it to keep getting better.
Am I overlooking something here? I have set up my op defaults to output G54 and coolant on. Now here's the fun part. I create a new toolpath, the coolant defaults on but I have to open the Misc Values button and then press the button Set to Op Defaults. Now if they are defaults, why am I having to set them? Am I overlooking something?

I had the same thing. Thought I did something wrong. Pain in the a$$ to fix not knowing about the sort feature.
While we are on the subject of twilite zone, anyone else have this cool screensaver effect? Press Ctrl End.
Hello All!
I found this way of getting a tool list-
Toolpaths-Tool Manager- Right click in the part tools area- import/export tools- report. Only problem for me is the format. Anyone know how to change the format?
