Transform toolpath work offset?

Hi all,

Just a little confused on how transform works between planes.

I have a part on a sheet in the upper left, and I have that same part on a different sheet in the lower right.
If I translate the toolpath with the tool plane method and origin selected, the origin changes to the correct sheet, but the part stays in the upper left instead of moving to the lower right.

Are you trying to use a work offset shift or just a coordinate shift?

If you're reating a now work offet, you'll need to set that position in your control....

If you're just using coordinate shift the you set a value distance in the transform operation..

The answer ultimately depends on exactly what you're trying to do
