Re: CAM will not select ANY contours
Hi, thanks for looking at this.
It’s very strange, and not the first time this has happened. I reopened the
file stored on Autodesk’s server this morning and did exactly what I had
been doing yesterday. (The inability to draw a box over an area to bulk
select contours has given me lots of practice at picking them!) The
contours for 2D contours are now all available for selection! Yesterday as
I hovered the cursor over the model nothing was available to select. The
.f3d file also works now.
This is the same behaviour that led to my first post starting this thread.
It also mysteriously came good a day later. Seeing the .f3d file has not
changed, this makes me wonder if something is being cached or “stuck” in fusion
360? I quit and restarted the program a couple of times yesterday which didn
’t help. There is a pattern emerging of not being able to select elements
for toolpath generation following model editing which comes good the
following day. This has also happened 2 or 3 times before I approached the
forum, but I didn’t spot the pattern. Next time I’ll reboot the computer as
a test.
