Worked fine on M130 but after upgrading to M160 the fixture vanishes when starting an operation in Creo NC. Very inconvenient since the fixture has a set of coordinates I need to use and I cannot select it. Only thing I see is the model and the workpiece. Only way to get it back seems to be close the file and reopen it.

Apparently you have to add fixture through operation instead of adding it before hand. Thanks for your help everyone. and the views

You can also create multiple fixture setups before defining your operation. Just be sure to select a fixture setup to be used within each operation under the "Fixture Setup" drop tab.

 

Select Operation -> Edit Definition -> Fixture Setup -> Select Fixture setup for the current Operation.
