Title: - fixture save...
Post by: Kenneth on August 14, 2014, 11:27:46 AM

i'm using mach3 r3.043.066.
it never ask me to save fixture. i tried with the option "optional offset save"
checked and un-checked. i created a button(122) so i can save it but would like
to make a safety so it would ask when i close.
 Thanks !

Check Optional Offset Save.
Close and Restart Mach3.
Zero an axis. (that's not already zero)
Close Mach3.

You should see the message to save.

Attach your xml and I will take a look and see if I can replicate your issue.

When you have an issue that nobody else has, then nobody will have an answer.

I'd first try deleting your .xml file and creating a new one. If that doesn't work, I'd uninstall Mach3, and then reinstall and see if that works.
