This is a pretty trivial question, but… when you go to load a job in CNC12 the dialog box automatically looks at all files in a folder. In the drop down menu it is possible to select just .cnc files. Is there a setting to tell CNC12 to just look at .cnc files by default? The way I have my folder structure set up I’ve got other files in each job folder that I’d rather not have to scroll through or select away from every time I want to load a job. This is a fairly minor annoyance, but if there is a solution I haven’t found it.

Thanks,  
Garth

There’s no way to confiture that in CNC12 but you can just put \*.cnc for the filename and press enter and it will filter files with the extension .cnc for you.

Hi Eric,

Thanks. That’s what I expected but I had hoped. It’s a small thing. Overall my upgrade to CNC12 and the servos has been fantastic.

Thanks,  
Garth
