hi dave the yet to be reelased V 2.4.x has a G10 update which lets you do a incremental shift from a defind point, which works just the same as G52 does. this should do what you need todo.
see here http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.4/html/gcode_main.html#sec:G10-L20 as i do alot of programing on sheet parts using G52 on fanuc and call the sub program. makes it easy to edit a program also with out reposting it. i have already modded the camworks post to support it with sub calls. robert On 20/03/2010 11:53, Paul Keeton wrote: > A couple of questions - > > 1.
