popup tips with explanation about each option (in cam module) dont appears. i think it happened after latest update, already reinstalled fusion but it doesnt help. i am new to CAM but it was very helpful and now this problem, i attached 2 screens one is the old with working popup and new without explanation

 

also after update got problem with home position, i selecting for x0,y0,z0  corner of stock but when i load program to cnc it see home in center of boundary top. (mach postprocess)

 

also newbie question why Fusion generate toolpatch like this: when i start, spindle from x0,y0,z0 going by xy axes to place where it must start and then go up in Z axis and starting to work i think it is very dangerous moves, now im changing gcode manually to avoid this, how to solve this?

You need to set "Home Position" in Mach3. Once you do that, even if you don't have limit or homing switches, it will move to a safe spot and then proceed.

 

 

Regarding the tooltips, I'm seeing that behavior as well. @jeff.pek @porsbym has this been logged with the UI team yet?

Uh, wow! How did we miss that?! It indeed looks like the tooltip content is not being included in the update.

We definitely need to fix this.

 

As explanation, the reason this latest update was so long in coming was that the entire Fusion team underwent an infrastructure change with our source code control system. This was a big effort, and involved restructuring of the code base. I know, TMI, but I'm certain that some of these changes must have created slight confusion in where to find the files that represent the tooltips.

 

We'll get if fixed, ASAP.

Thanks for letting us know. I still can't believe no one saw this.

Thank you, but i thinkink i mean another thing, just look pictures attached
"Face" operation in fusion we can see origin near corner 

im saving for mach postprocess but using CNC planet software

and after loading you can see (screen from cncplanet) origin in going to center of work and this happening now for all operations

and i have made thing before update it is working as expected see "Before" it is same in fusion and in cnc planet excluding scratching surface on start and end

Couple of things:

One: Pictures are quite easy to insert "in-line" with the "Photos" button. Otherwise, we have to download to our computer everything you attach. A lot of users would rather not do that, for many reasons. So, use the "Photos" button that is above the text box:

Second: Your second problem is quite different from the first. Suggest starting a new thread. Please share your Fusion file: File > Export > Save to local folder. Attach the .f3d file in your first post

 

This will help people to search and find appropriate threads related to their issue

As a workaround, if you're up for dropping a new batch of  files on your system:

The problem with the tooltips is that a "Help" folder is missing from the installation. This contains a bunch of .html and .png files that represent the tooltip content.

 

I have attached a zip file containing that content. You can update your installation to include the help files by unzipping the zip file into your active "webdeploy" folder. The current webdeploy area (on Windows) is:

C:\Users\<userid>\AppData\Local\Autodesk\webdeploy\production\41d52fa717ba4840fb5195487a087e5d0282fc3f

 

The contents of the zip file would go into the "NeuCAM\UI\NeuCAMUI\Resources" subfolder, inside a folder called "Help". This would, then, look something like this:

Help folderHelp folder

Keep in mind that the folder under "production" changes with every update, so if you get an update you might need to re-extract, or just move this folder accordingly. I don't imagine there will be many, if any, updates before we fix this, so that may not be an issue.

 

On a Mac, the "webdeploy" is in a different location, under ~/Library/Application Support, but instructions would be otherwise similar.
