Shouldn't touch-off to the tool table issue a g43, to make linuxcnc use the new tool length offset?
Let me clarify. I use Axis. When I touch off, Axis pops up a window that lets me enter the new coordinate for the selected axis, and that window has a pull-down that lets me select where to apply this new offset. The choices in the pull-down are the various coordinate systems (g54, g55, etc), or the tool table. If i touch off to the currently selected coordinate system, the DRO immediately changes to reflect the new offset. But if I touch off to the tool table, the DRO does not change. Inspecting the tool table shows the new offset is there. Switching to the MDI tab (f5) and running g43 causes the DRO to update to the correct value. Shouldn't Axis issue a g43 automatically when the user touches off to the tool table? -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't let slow site performance ruin your business.
