Generate NC option

[Doug W]

This option offers the ability to select/deselect a program during post generation.

It can be selected job by job -



Or through "global edit" -



It can also help organize your joblist if using reference programs. When "Generate NC" is deselected, the job will be greyed out.

This feature still does not work correctly but I have determined that is is more likely to work just after a file has been opened. So if you have several tens of job steps to flip one way or the other, it is easier to try saving/closing the file and opening it up again.

If you are having a technical problem with this function, please send it to OM US Support.

To my knowledge, this function is working as expected.

Thanks

Doug, you are OM US Support. Take a look at the emails I sent you last month (in October of this year).

I do not know what else to tell you, it often works when you first open a file but edit a few job steps or copy and past job steps or import job steps and the group edit feature that is used to flip multiple "generate NC file" check boxes, will stop working.

I took your advice of months ago and just started using hyperPOST to call the PP. That works OK but it requires many mouse clicks to to call the PP.

With the release of 9.7 this issue is almost gone. Only the old 2D job steps are still not working but they are being phased out so they do not matter.

Thanks Open Mind!
