build envelope only reflects first item in processes list

very frustrating. I have multiple processes in one factory file as I have multiple machines.

In 5.0, I can select one of the processes lower in the list, but the build envelope of the machine does not change to reflect the process, so I cannot properly place things-, nor happily print to preview as it complains my objects are too large. (wrong printer footprint!!!)

hopefully this is resolvable. on OS X simplify3d user through it all, and excited to see a new software, with minor improvements, but new bugs for things that haven't changed and weren't broken before...

Re: build envelope only reflects first item in processes list

Same problem, I have two processes, P1 for a 400x400mm bed printer, P2 for a 200x200mm bed printer. P1 is first in process list. When I generated g-code for P2, the code generated is for a 400x400mm bed, not for the 200x200mm bed.

With version 4, I could reposition the model (center and arrange button) after switching processes, and the proper model position in relation to the build size was shown, this is no longer the case in version 5.
