Bottom feed plane mission, also missing - arrow buttons

Hello,

I hadn't run the CAM for a couple weeks, now creating setups for few parts, and noticed something is off, for once, the bottom plane is missing from the viewport, and then the small arrow buttons are missing from the value entry windows that will allow to bump the value +/-, which was very helpful, and now having to type numbers in makes the process more tedious, is this by design or I'm missing some setting? I hadn't customized any views or anything, like that in Fusion since I last used it.

2 pics that show the setup and toolpath

selecting "Model bottom" instead of "Selected contours" makes the Bottom plane to show up, but I'm pretty sure it didn't behave like this before, and this behavior seems wrong

 

still can't find why the arrow buttons are not showing up...

Hmmm, this as far as I know has been around for quite a while.

 

It may be that the assumption is that if you are using the Default "Selected Contour"  option then the user already knows where the Bottom height is, however I suppose a confirmation would be nice, especially if a minus or plus value has also been used, think it does need a "fix" :slightly_smiling_face:

 

It seems to work fine with all the other selections :slightly_smiling_face:

I did find a post from 2020 explaining this exact issue, but I'm 100% sure I had never ran into it before this latest update, the bottom layer was always visible even with "Selected Contour" in that box

 

but the missing arrow buttons are still a mystery

Autodesk got rid of the incremental arrows with the newest update. Others have complained about it and they said they would look at returning them in some form, eventually.
