tool path preview not showing while editing

Hello,

 

I’ve watched a few guys on youtube giving pointers on Fusion 360 CAM for milling and their tool paths immediately update and preview as they are setting up the operation and making selections so they can see the result of every change they make.

 

I’m not seeing my tool paths or if I already have a toolpath being displayed it doesn’t update until I click ok for the operation.  Am I having a graphics compatibility issue and/or is there a setting I need to change?

Hi

 

can you link to one of those videos that shows this?

 

I don't think this has ever been a function in Fusion

Accepted solution

AFAIK there is no feature in Fusion that updates the toolpath as selections are made.  Toolpath calculation is only performed after the OK button is pressed.

 

There is an option to display an already calculated toolpath while editing but again the toolpath isn't updated to reflect any changes until the OK button is pressed

It sounds like I probably mis-perceived what I saw.

It was the NYC CNC guys’ videos.

I’ll rewatch.
