Some models have required reselecting printer to get post

Since the latest update to Fusion 360, I've noticed that multiple models I've worked on recently have required me to reselect my Creality 3D printer before it would output usable g-code.  It seems Fusion 360 isn't recognizing my cloud-based Creality FFF post-processor.  This has also happened when selecting a local version of the PP file.  If I reselect the printer (with the matching PP) from my cloud library, it works fine again.  I've had the same files do this multiple times after I come back to Fusion the next day.  I will either make a minor settings tweak or do nothing at all and just try to make g-code again, and it does this.  (I also find it irritating that Fusion forces me to recreate my g-code again just to preview my 3D print "toolpath", even though I saved the model before shutting down Fusion.)

 

When this happens, it spits out some .gcode.failed data into Notepad++, stating it had an issue with my post-processing because it could not recognize Extruder 0.  It seems to occur primarily on files with multiple setups.  And it does not occur every time I reload a model that's had this issue.

 

I recently reinstalled Fusion to see if that would help with a different issue, that did not help with this.  (It didn't help with the other issue, either...  that's a known bug, apparently.)

 

If I get it to do this again, I will upload screenshots or a copy of the .failed output.

Thanks Eric.

If you can share your Fusion project/folder with us we can look into it a bit more in detail
