Oh, also you can set the tool table with MDI. Then you don't have to mess with an external editor, and you don't have to do the manual reload. For example G10 L1 P1 Z1.234 L1 = set tool table entry P1 = tool number Z1.234 = new length (Z offset) This is what tool touch off does underneath, except it figures out the right Z number for you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
