Is anyone running Solidworks PDM and have installed Mastercam 2023 on the same computer? We seemed to have lost the functionality of the PDM when using file open in MC2023. Mastercam 2022 still functions fine, so we are able to use it still. Normally within a PDM Vault, the folders are green and the top ribbon is different. In MC2023, it looks like a normal Windows Explorer with the yellow folders. We raised it with CNC software and got a defect # D-48912. Has anyone ran into this and found a workaround?

Is it possible to assign shortcut keys to the toolpath manger right mouse button menu? I couldn't find the commands anywhere. I am specifically wanting 'New Toolpath Group' and 'Tool list'

Is it possible to remove the hotkey 'P' when the mouse is in the toolpath manager for enabling/ disabling toolpath posting? (The ghost icon)

There is an option to save the chuck part, cutoff part, or both. I believe its on the tool page

How do I save the appearance settings to default on with outline shaded and material applied?

I just purchased the report program from Jim Varco. I also highly recommend it. It is so easy to customize exactly what you want in a few minutes.

When I use dynamic transform, in 2018 and previous I could press the "O" key to snap to the origin. In 2019 this no longer works and it opens fast point mode. Is there a new button to press to allow it to snap to the origin?

So I just got one that would not open to open. I had changed the lower connection to ER16. I changed it to 0 and I can open it now. I tried it on every one that was not working and it works now. It did not like any text in the field

In Mastercam 2018, some of the tool holders I have give me an error when trying to open them in Tool manager. I get an error saying 'Input string was not in the correct format' It is not on every tool holder. Any ideas on a possible problem?

Sandvik changed the name of it.

Has anyone used Sandvik Coroplus in MC2018. I didnt play with it in Beta and was told it is a puchase option. Not sure if it's worth the price. What were the benefits of using it?

Featurecam has the wall check feature. It makes it nice to get the chamfer as close to wall as possible with out hitting.

Is it possible to use a solid model as a tool for lathe tools? I know how to do it easily with Milling.
