HAAS NGC post property blank after reposting

Hello,

 

I am having an issue when posting my programs that made me crash my rotary twice now from me not checking my post properties every time I post.

 

I have edited the default "hasAAxis" value as "reversed" to suit my primary setup. If I need to post a program without an A axis I'll just toggle the property in the post dialog to "off". Then if I go back to posting a program with an A axis, I'll either select "reversed" or just click "reset to post default", and post. Whenever I need to repost that same program, even if immediately after resetting to defaults, the "hasAAaxis" property is blank. As a result, it posts rotary moves in the opposite direction that I need and crashes my part or fixture if I don't catch this glitch...

 

Attached is a screenshot of the post dialog after resetting to defaults the last time I posted, along with the edit I did to change the default that I need. Hopefully someone can chime in on if I missed something, what's going on or if someone has had similar issues.

 

Edit to add: I've encountered this with multiple versions of the HAAS NGC post provided in the Autodesk post library so I don't believe it could be an issue with that..

I have also come across this multiple times with the Haas post.

 

I also have the same problem with one of my posts that I added a selectable park position to that sometimes goes blank and won't let you post.

I found I have to restart Fusion to fix it.

I just made a band-aid fix by changing the logic so if the property is anything but the allowed variables ie. blank, it will throw an error instead of successfully posting using the wrong option. The existing logic in the haas post doesn't check for the options exclusively, only if the property is NOT false, then if it is reversed. However I would prefer to not have to do this and have the actual issue fixed..

 

Attached is my added lines of code

Hello, @andresPD4JJ . I think, we had similar report in the past, could you take a look into this solution, if it helps: Re: Error: You can only select either a machine in the CAM setup or use the properties to define you...
Thanks!

Hello,

 

I went ahead and deleted all options related to hasAaxis, and finally got into a state where I need to switch back and fourth. It is still ending up blank after completing the same steps as before. I checked that file again as a precaution and the only entry that exists regarding "hasAaxis" has the value as false.

Looks like a Fusion update added a a pop up when an unknown value is found. But still no solution to whats causing the property to become blank.
