Set defaults for Setup pulldowns

Set defaults for Setup pulldowns

It would be very nice to have every setup start the way you wish: Automatically choosing Milling or Turning, choose automatically Fixed size box, etc

 

 

In an operation you can set your default values by clicking "set default" on a field. This is also possible in the Setup.

 

If you want to make a pulldown or checkbox default in an operation you can use compare and edit. This is not possible in setup.

 

I can do it by editting %AppData%\Autodesk\Inventor HSM\Defaults\setup.xml but this is not really user friendly.

 

I think this would be fairly easy to implement

Every time I make a new Job now I get a Cylindrical by default. Better than losing the setup stock as it used to be though, so I live with it. This would be nicer.

This is possible by using the "make all default" command. This also saves the state of dropdowns in the setup.
