Ok, thanks I’ll give it a try.
I’m an idiot. Lol. I can’t get to the setup menu. It keeps sending me back to NC Program which is the photo I posted
Here’s a link to the last time this topic came up.
goes through setting up your post processor in fusion 360 pretty thoroughly.
Ok, I’ll give that a shot.
I had no problem getting to the post process before today and when I hover over it with my cursor it shows the menu I want but when I click on it I get the NC process that I showed a photo of.
I noticed that fusion had an update .some of the menus have changed. The font and the window bubbles are even a little different.
I wonder when it updated if it started using a default folder to look for the Post
Maybe when you set it up originally you set it up to a custom folder and the update now isn’t looking for it there?
Just theorizing.
I originally did have it setup wrong when I first got the machine and then I fixed it by doing what you just recently told me. And today I’m lost
It’s not recognizing firecontrol and I don’t know how to install it.
This is where it posts on my computer
here is where you can reenter it.
Post library menu
find firecontrol in your file system .
Maybe download?
this is what it looks like correctly installed
That’s where I’m at but cannot enter anything in the post unless it’s in the library. And I can’t find it in the library
I can find the fire control file and I tried to copy and paste it into the post but it won’t open up and let me paste
I just finally got to try it and I think it worked. At least i found it in my file. I’ll try using it tomorrow. I would like to thank those of you who helped me very very much for helping me. I really do appreciate it
could you post details how you solved your issue in case somebody else finds the thread in the future with the same problem.
I wish I could but I don’t understand exactly what I have done. And now today there are more changes in the program that I have to figure out. Did fusion send out a email about these changes and I missed it?
I know fusion360 did update all their menus a couple days ago the day you started having problems.
The same day they updated I was able to design and post a project without any issues. I think maybe because I used the defaults folders for all my post processor information and other information I have added to fusion over time.
I think when the update occurred it went back to the default folders and wasn’t looking for any folders you had pointed to in the past.
Again I’m just theorizing.
I was using fusion for a few hours this morning but only for design I hadn’t got into the cam portion yet. It crashed a couple times but I was using some pretty heavy svgs so I kind of expected to.
Usually you can see alerts up in the top right corner of your fusion360 browser. It’ll have a notification they will let you know all the changes that were made.
I think your theory is spot on and again I thank you for your help.
