Some how when installing onto Linux these days, you cannot see the check boxes to select machine type.
I've observed this on a couple of times installing after an upgrade now

The end result is I cannot just select a plasma machine and the routing operations are included which I don't want.
Then importing my toolsets seems to become corrupt as the material names are not imported.

What is the solution?

This is a problem with GTK2 themes. GTK2 is getting pretty old and many of the themes don't work properly. If you go to your GTK2 settings and experiment with the themes you should find one that works. I have a GTK3 version of SheetCam in the pipeline. This should solve the problem.

For the tool sets, edit a tool and turn off 'automatically generate name'. Now load your tool set.

I have found that if you go to Settings ->Appearance ->Style and change from Graybird to Numix, you'll be able to see the check boxes.

Please tell me how you do this. There is no settings tab in Sheetcam.
Thanks

The setting is in Linux. I use Xubuntu, so I go to the Whisker menu, (upper left screen corner) then to Settings ->Appearance ->Style

I think the available themes will vary with the Distro.
I'm using Mint 19.3 and I found selecting xfce worked nicely.
Thanks for the guidance Les.

SO the only thing I need to do is work out how to make the column on the right wider. With >50 tools, its not very workable Any Ideas appreciated

Ahh, I worked it out. You can hardly see it but half way along there are some markings on the right margin (just above the slider) in the screendump above. If you click on them you can drag it wider.
