    BobCam for SW v5 , Machine Housing no longer visible.

    Solved !!
    I had a good look at the Icon bar in Simulation.
    To the right is the large Machine Housing icon that is grayed out with my machine selected.
    Selecting the BC_4x_Mill machine shows this icon black and selectable.

    However , there is an icon at the left right under the Simulation tab , a circle which gives one the options Tool, Workpiece / Stock or Machine.
    Selecting Machine brings back my own Sieg SX3 mill.


    As stated in the Title, my own 4-axis machine ( SX3-Mill_4x) is no longer visible in Simulation.
    The Machine Housing icon is grayed out.

    In BobCad-Cam Data I have the folder SX3_Mill_4x. Here are the same files as in the v3 folder.

    Can anyone help me with this?

    These are the files:

    SX3_Mill - 4 Jaw Chuck 100mm-1.STL
    SX3_Mill - Ghirri V40 Complete-1.STL
    SX3_Mill - SX3_Mill_Base-1.STL
    SX3_Mill - SX3_Mill_Head-1.STL
    SX3_Mill - SX3_X_Table-1.STL
    SX3_Mill - SX3_X_Y_Base-1.STL
    SX3_Mill_4x.xml
