How do you create a new tool library in the cloud

Just as the title says how do you create a new tool library in the cloud?

 

I have one library for flat end mills. I do not recall how I added it. I would like to keep all my tools in the cloud because I access fusion from my office PC and shop PC.

 

What I am doing: 

Select CAM

Click on tool Library

Right click on Cloud, select "New tool Library"

New entry appears under cloud. I type name "Threading Tools" press enter

New entry name changes to "New Library", library is empty

I right click on "New Library", no option to rename.

I add new threading tool to "New Library"

I click OK

Click on 2d threading under cam menu

Click on select tool

"New library" is gone, as well as new threading tool

I open Library and "New Library" is gone.

Try adding again. 

Same as above, as soon as I click "OK" tool window closes, next time I open "New Library" is gone

 

I would like to be able to add Library's as I will have lots of tools and would like to keep them organized. And don't want to re-enter the tool each time I need to use it.

 

What am I doing wrong?

Hi @tjtalma,

 

Thank you for posting in the forum! I believe you are doing everything correctly but seeing a known issue with CAM tool library (CAM-10670) and the development team is working on this right now.

 

Does a new library stay in the cloud if you don't change its name when creating? (Keep the name as it is, for example, New Library 1 ) If this does not work as a workaround, you may be experiencing something difference. Would you be able to record a screencast of the behavior so I could take a closer look?

Hi @tjtalma,

 

Thank you for the update! In that case, I believe you are seeing the known issue, and we are planning to release a fix within this month.

 

Again, I apologize for the inconvenience.
