Cimco Editor not opening after post processing.

kev.oue — Thu, 14 Nov 2019 22:55:38 GMT

Hello all,

I have solidworks 2018 Standard with HSM Express 2019. I have been using it for over a year now really without any issue until the other day I post processed a job and the editor didn't come up as it always has. So now I have to manually open the editor afterwards if I want to transfer. It still works but is incredibly annoying. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think there's either a preference setting, or maybe an option in the post dialog that controls this. Is it possible that that has changed somehow?

I dont ever remember seeing that setting but I will check, Its very unlikely that its changed as I am the only one that uses the computer and it has been running fine for months without making any changes to HSM config or the templates. I will check.. thanks!

also have there been any other update to your PC, windows updates new software, new SW SP's????

could mess with it.

have you turned HSMWorks of via add-ins and then turn it back on, I've had to do that once in a while when I've not shut down SW or the PC for a long time...days\weeks

Just an update, I have been unable to find any setting relating to how HSM edit reacts after post processing.

My computer is set to receive automatic updates, but I have not updated Solidworks or HSM. I have Solidworks SP5. If I cant get this figured out I will try reinstalling when I have time. Thank you guys for your time.

you'll see the last line is for HSMExpress
