    I have custom RMB and my ribbon toolbar(s) Quite a few didn't migrate over. They are not even visible in my custom toolbar or even in the All commands to bring it in. Work around : re install 2023 and in advance install Do Not check Workspace files . Now commands are visible in All Commands and you can re create your 2022 toolbars manually etc. Enjoy !!

    I'll check it out !

    Can't stand how small all of the text is in the tool libraries and inside the tool paths themselves. Reseller said no can do... That's how it is.

    I have had situations where they disappear, but really there there. Just not visible unless I close completely out of mc then start a fresh session and re open the file There they are...sometimes with dimensioning too.

    This was happening to me randomly ( 1 out of 5 mc exits after the original MC22 install ) It stopped all together a while ago on its own.... ?!

    The auto toolpath regen function is a time saver ( I still note the file sz. Before the # crunch) and the fact 2022 didn't screw me over in all the things / paths I use Im impressed enough to pay maintenance for another go round.
  14. Fred @ Slate Industries
    I see this also... Ever listen to the podcast(s) " Darknet Diaries "... Somebody somewhere, for some reason somehow......

    The other programmer here picks the whole solid as well.... I lived through the " Dr. Watson" days where you had to pick each surface sometimes to see which one was crashing the system and had to be recreated so MC could crunch it lol

    Just saw this... Good Luck !! Hopefully you get to start making Trick SCCA car parts etc. !

    Scary at first , but it's what we're looking for . I don't know how easy it is to un tangle it back if needed...

    If I had 30 + years in at MC it would be a great Segway into retirement.. Its been nice !

    I have it. I run my mill set. Set up sheet Which gives me a tool list with the maximum Z depth for each tool. I copy it and paste it into mc' "Notes" Then I place it on the screen under the part and print the screen. Done. I can give you my mill.set post And a quick video if your into it.

    Figure out the center distance 039 wide = .0197 etc Now I do an offset curve from one of the edges. Takes some quick trimming and a little clean up here and there. * If you have text / Dims etc. You cant chain use Break ( lines ) ? and now you can.
