Changing Post processor from default

Post by KeithF »

I followed the instruction for changing the metric pp to inches and posted it to the list. However when i hit the drop down button, it only shows the default, not the whole list. How do i get to the whole list? (Vcarve Desktop v8.5)
Thank you in advance.

Go to the File menu, choose open application data folder and then look in the My_PostP folder rather than the PostP folder. If there are any post processors in there they will be the only ones displayed as it overrides the contents of PostP.

If you remove any in there and then copy your new one into there you should be good to go.

The other thing it might be is that you've changed it in My_PostP correctly but forgotten to change the POST_NAME variable so it looks like the old one even though it's the new one.
