Multiple work offsets

I've seen a recent video of another cam program where after programming a single part, you can go to the post processor options and set how many work offsets you would like. When it posts it will automatically add copies of the code and just add the offset # before the copied code, you can even get it to sort by operation/tool/offset.

Is this possible in MC? or do you have to make copies and manually change the offset in each operation?

 

Cheers

On the planes menu you can set the offset it posts to (G54 G55 G56 and so on), except it uses numbers.  #0=G54, #1=G56 etc.  Of course you need to have copies of your operations, and then set each set of operations to you desired offset.  I hope that answers your question
