Hello! I have a question:Is there a way to change the "first" working coordinate system all toolpath in one click ?

For example, create 10 toolpath

Working coordinate system        Tool plane            Construction plane

              A0                                     A0                         A0

              A10                                   A10                       A10

              A20                                   A20                       A20

              A30                                   A30                       A30

              A40                                   A40                       A40

              A50                                   A50                       A50

              A60                                   A60                       A60

              A70                                   A70                       A70

              A80                                   A80                       A80

              A90                                   A90                       A90

 

Need install al Working coordinate system -  A0

 

Working coordinate system        Tool plane            Construction plane

              A0                                    A0                         A0

              A0                                    A10                       A10

              A0                                    A20                       A20

              A0                                    A30                       A30

              A0                                    A40                       A40

              A0                                    A50                       A50

              A0                                    A60                       A60

              A0                                    A70                       A70

              A0                                    A80                       A80

              A0                                    A90                       A90

 

I try do it with - Edit common parameters dialog box - planes - but all three "Working coordinate system ,Tool plane ,Construction plane" are set in A0.

 

But if I have a hundred operations? I need to go into each and set each A0?

Right click in the Tool path Manager and pick the "Select" command, then choose 'By View" then pick  a view

 

A10 for example.

 

that will select all the views using A10 as a Tool Plane

then you can mass edit the selection to

 

A0 A10 A10

 

using this technique you can edit all you toolpaths to so the WCS = A0

in 10 edits instead of doing it one operation at a time

Thanks Gcode :unworthy:​ , but I would like that the choice was all operations  :question:

Maybe in the next versions to appear such a choice, to facilitate programming.

Maybe somebody create chook  :fun:
