Where did the Machine Configurations go? Since Last Update

[SMI-CAD2]

We have spent time developing and embracing the Machine Configurisations,  they are now no longer showing in the Cam Window.  Is this a glitch or is Fusion removing them?

Oh no, they aren't going anywhere.

You need to have one thing turned on to have access to them:

Just out of curiosity; What benefit do you derive from machine configs, given their current limited value?

Hello.

Thanks for the reply.  

The benefit of the machine configs up till now has been the ability to set the posts,  Machine limits,  speeds and feeds.   etc.  Also the documentation.  However since the last update,  there is no option to use any type of machine.  It is gone, I have gone through and disabled all features and then re-applied one by one, but when you go to CAM/Manufacturing, there is no longer any option to choose a machine.  Has this been removed?  We have tried on multiple systems to verify that it was not just a single account and also not specific to a local system.
  When you go to Cam, and create a new setup, there is no longer an option to specify any machine.  We found this was a useful feature, but are wondering if it is being removed? I have tried on a system that did not have the latest update, and it was still there, however We can no longer use that feature.  I am attaching pictures showing our settings.  (3) days ago they were working, now they are not. We just want to know if it has been cancelled.  It was very useful

as you can see, we still have our assets library, but when you create any new setup folder or cutterpath, there is no option to select a machine.

Ok,  weird,  but I think it is ok now.

I just logged out on all systems ,  logged in as another user,  and the option is now back.  I apologize, it must have been that one of the systems had not updated yet and that user was still logged in and holding it back.  Will log in fresh at work tomorrow and let you know.

Sorry for the trouble.  and thanks for your assistance.

@seth.madore It has something to do with the UI preview turning that on then restart fusion, the machine config is gone turn it off then restart fusion it still may be gone if it is unticking the machine config then retick and it comes back, this was on apple and windows.

I can get it to repeat the same thing

Had the same problems, but I can't recall why it's functioning properly now. Maybe it has something to do with logging off and on.
