    2015 R2 - Can't save NC-Code

    After upgrading from 2014 to 2015, I cannot save any files. I get an error that says "WARNING: NC-CODE NOT SAVED!". Any recommendations?

    Does it display a message "some toolpaths are hidden. NC Code will NOT be output" before the "WARNING: NC-CODE NOT SAVED" message. If it does then you need to add the following lines to your Post Processor.

    $545 Allow output of visible operations only (1 = Yes, 0 = No).

    Hi Frank,

    There are no error messages prior to the message. When I open the *.cnc afterwards there are no lines of code. It looks more like a summary of what's supposed to happen.

    Below is what I see on the .cnc file:

    Can you Post your Drawing (.ard) file and Post Processor so we can see if there are any anomalies in the Post that are causing this issue.
    Just change the extension on the .ard file to something this site accepts.
    Also try different Post Processors to see if they generate code
