Missing Reset Configuration Option

JolonB

I'm currently running RobotStudio 2021.4 and I've found that there is no option to reset the configurations on a path. As noted in the RobotStudio Operating Manual, I should be able to right-click a path, select Configurations, and select Reset Configurations.
When I attempt to do this, I find there is no "Configurations" option in the menu, only "Auto Configuration".

Is there a reason this feature isn't available? I'm aware that I can make this option available with a keyboard shortcut, but doesn't seem to change the target/move instruction icon as the manual suggests.

Thanks in advance

    There are many "correct ways" to generate paths with appropriate configurations. The one you mentioned is one of them!

    Hello JolonB,

    I've just searched through the RS 2021.4 Operating manual and I can't seem to find that section. What version of the manual are you looking in, and what page is that excerpt taken from?

    Thanks!

    Hi Maxim,

    It looks like I might be using the manual for RS5.14 on page 405 (link). That explains why it's different.

    I think I figured it out too (by looking at the 2021 manual this time). By right-clicking a target, I can set its configuration and then apply it to the entire path by running Auto Configuration. Is this the correct way to set the configuration of a path?

    Thanks :)
