No Menu in CAM visible

Hi, since the september update of Fusion 360 I do not get any menue which would allow me to do any action like creating toolpaths when I switch to CAM Workspace. I have tried all options I could think about - without success. The issue might also be caused by my account being switched from a trial version to "startup". It happened at the same time, so I do not know what was actually the cause.

Hello,

 

You should have two different ways to create a toolpath.

 

First make sure that you have enabled the CAM preview.  Under preferences for your account there is a tab called preview.  When this is checked it should give you access to CAM as well as the API preview.

 

Now to create a toolpath you can RMB on an item in the data panel that shows up on the left side of Fusion and choose "Create Toolpath".

Another way to do this is with a design already open.  From the file menu there is an option for "New Toolpath from Design".

I hope this solves any confusion for you.  When going from trial to startup there shouldn't be any loss of functionality.  Please let me know if you see anything else that isn't working as you thought it should.

Hi

Thanks vor The quick answer. I realized I did not express myself correctly. I could actually create a toolpath by using the menus "create toolpath from design". Now the file opened and the CAM box indicating that the CAM workspace is active appeared. Now on the right of this Box there is no other menus. In the model workspace there is Create/Modify/Assemble... available. In the CAM workspace there is nothing. Also, the context menus when I right-click is nearly empty and contains only commands to switch workspace and measure...

Solved by de-installation and re-installation.
