Technical Support

Issue:

There is an error icon next to a toolpath, and when the icon is clicked the error message says "Error: Contour selection has X missing selections. Error: No contour selected to machine."


"Error: Contour selection has X missing selections. Error: No contour selected to machine." 

Environment:

This article applies to the operating systems listed. If your operating system is not shown, it may be because it is not supported or because support information is not yet available. For details on operating systems no longer supported by the vendor, see Product Support Lifecycle.

Causes:

The model geometry that defined the contour in this toolpath has a broken or missing reference. The number of "missing selections" indicates how many references are missing.
It can happen when:
  • The contour geometry has been changed or deleted,
  • The body has been repatterned, remirrored, or deleted,
  • The body has been moved to another component. 

Solution:

  1. Right click the toolpath in the browser and go to "edit."
  2. In the Geometry tab, click the X next to Contour Selection to cancel all current selections.
  3. Click the contours that you want.
  4. Click OK. The toolpath will automatically regenerate.
