FeatureCam 2019, adding tool list in NC code

Anonymous
Not applicable

I would like to have a tool list in the NC code. I have added the SetupInfoNCCode.bas Add-in and placed the (SETUP-INFO-MY-SETTINGS)<EOB> in the post I use. All it will do is print (SETUP-INFO-MY-SETTINGS) in the code. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if its not compatible with FC 2019. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Wait!

 

  Are you saying that in V2019 ( or above ) the setupinfo addin no longer works?

 

Does anyone have any information how and why did that break?

 

Seriously, for 90% of the parts we run here there is no setupsheet or traveler with an opsheet.

We just put the basic info - via the addins - into the header of the program

along with the tool list - also via an addin - and call it a day.

 

Please tell me that the "setup notes. bas" and the "add stock tool list and setup sheet.bas" still works!!!

Your formatting does not fit.
at & 1 the brackets () are not correct.
And in Featurecam the addin load.

 

Deine Formatierung passt nicht.
bei &1 sind die Klammern ( ) nicht richtig.
Und in Featurecam das Addin laden.

It works! Had to start FeatureCam with Run as administrator (link below). Both examples above work as well as the SetupInfoNCCode.bas add-in. Thanks for your help.
