I am producing several parts for an associate, and wanted to use several
offsets for the various sides of the part.'
All was going well until I got to G59.1 (offset 7 in F360). It formats the
command as "g59.1 P1", and LCNC does not seem to like it.
I edited the problem entries in the NC file, and

That sounds like an issue with the post processor. It's easy to
imagine that some other system would use G59.

It's under the setup.
I use it all the time. Easier than manually changing the work offset

Yeah, I am sure it is in the post processor. I pulled it down and had a
look at it, but I am not a programmer. I found where itis stated, but have
no clue how to change it.
I am running out of workspaces. I am doing a 2-up run with a blank in
each end of the vice, using workspace rotation. Pus

You can have as many as you want if you can swap var files around:
http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.8/html/config/ini-config.html#gcode:ini-features
It means stopping and re-starting LinuxCNC with a different var file
Now that change is very easy to understand!
I was trying to report this to a person I was incontact with @ HSMWorks,
who (I think) released the first LinuxCNC post for HSMWorks, but that was
around the time that Autodesk acquired them. They do not seem to be there
now. (or their email address has

I think that swapping postprocessor files is probably the easiest way.
You can't specify a var file at the command line. But you can create
duplicate INI files which specify different var files.
Thank you Gene! I will look into it.
Fusion is really good at allowing you to set up multiple fixtures to run
parts in to minimize tool changes.
I have made fixture plates to machine the end plates on a couple of the
Hammond extruded enclosures. Five positions, four screws to hold down the
plate

whats the difference andy?
I currently use one that I found on the forum which outputs a g64 p value
equal to the smoothing value in fusion 360 effectively doubling the
tolerance. which works well.
but always interested in other post processors.
really need to learn to modify them myself. can'

Nothing practical. I re-cast the nested ifs as a switch.
