re ordering towpaths in Fusion 360 no longer works by just dragging

[Anonymous]

6/22/18 - Previous versions of Fusion 360 allowed me to re-order toolpaths in a CAM setup simply by dragging one up or down. Now with the new Fusion 360 this re-ordering feature does not work. A super nuisance indeed. Does this mean, I hear your strangled cry, that one has to get the order correct right from the beginning or scrap all the created toolpath and start again.

Hi @Anonymous

Thanks for posting! I've seen other reports of this since the previous update (see this thread), but have been unable to reproduce on my end. Would you mind sharing a part in which you've observed this problem with me?

Does the same behavior occur after a clean uninstall/reinstall of Fusion?

However this file cannot be re ordered and I should note that it used to work before the last update from Autodesk.

Also I am using a Mac Pro from 2009 running El Capitan but have also tried a newer Imac 2013 running High Sierra and the same problem exists, so it is not the Mac or the Mac OSX at fault here.

Hi @Anonymous

Thanks for posting. Did you attach a file? I am not seeing one - would you mind double checking that the insert went through? You can always share a downloadable link as well.

Hi @Anonymous

Are you responding to the email notification with pictures and a file? I don't think they are coming through on the forum thread - please respond on the thread page.

why don’t you just send me your email address and I will email you the f3d file that cannot be r-ordered. Forget about this blog posting nonsense,it is worse than the original problem

Hi @Anonymous

You can send the file to paul dot clauss at autodesk.com. Thanks!

Hi @auto6809

Thanks for sending the file over. I had no problems reordering toolpaths in it (shown in below screencast), so this must be an issue unique to something on your system.

I do understand that this is a frustrating UI bug and have reached out to our CAM team to inquire about if they have seen this behavior and if they are able to reproduce it. I'll keep you posted with any new information on this.

In the meantime, I'd like to:

1. Confirm if this issue occurs after a clean uninstall/reinstall of Fusion 360.
2. Confirm if this issue occurs after booting up your Mac in safe mode.
3. Confirm if this issue occurs after docking and redocking the browser, as shown below. The browser is docked when you drag it so the mouse cursor is over the left side of the Fusion window and a I'd also try resetting Fusion to its default layout.

I hope this helps! Please let me know if you continue seeing problems and we will continue investigating.

I've also been having issues with reordering tool paths and modeling operations (ie moving a component creation in the timeline).  I eventually managed to re order the toolpath but had to drag the browser out into its own window first, and then drag the toolpath into the new order.  Once I did that even after restarting Fusion it seems to be re ordering fine, although it is a bit laggy and not as smooth as it previously has been.
