Mass edit only wcs

[SlaveCam]

and leave tplane and cplane intact. Can it be done?

[Reko]

Not really.

You can only mass edit toolpaths whose planes you want identical to each other.

You can group together ( checkmark ) common planes and mass edit them... but not if the tplane and cplane need to be different... you'll need to do those in separate mass edits.

There is only one way to do this, but you have to do it when you start the file

If you are starting with Top for WCS, make a copy of it and use than.

Then it you need to change the WCS, you can just edit it via the Planes Manager.

Thank you for confirming this. It's a nethook project then.

I'm asking because sometimes it's better to rotate the WCS instead of transforming ops when a fixture moves from one pallet side to another. And this is where mass editing WCS comes in handy.

i would say make a copy like gcode said make the edit to it in the plane manager in 2019 and earlier. The you can select many operations that you want to change to this new WCS and change the all in Edit common Parameters .

I think SlaveCam is wanting to change to a different  WCS without changing the Construction and Tool planes

As far as I know, there is no way to mass edit this. It must be done one operation at a time

Gcode is right is there is no way to mass EDIT multiple WCS at one time.
