Morning All. Working off a tombstone, using the front const and tooling plane. I am trying to create an STL file using the current WCS so

I can verify. When the Save dialog appears I cannot switch to "Current WCS" , ir remains on World Co ords. I have tried changing defaults in

my config files but to no avail. I know I have done this before in earlier versions. I am very greatful for any assistance Using Ver 6MU3 Thanks

The best luck I have Verifying using .STL files is like this.

Save the .STL while your WCS is set to top. It does not matter what WCS your toolpath was created in. I use that feature all the time, and works works everytime as long as the .stl file was created when the WCS was set to the top.

I can email you a sample if you like.

That's how I do it and have no problems.
