Rookie Mistake

If all your ops are set to TOP wcs, right click in the ops manager, display options, shut everything off except the WCS;

Anything other than TOP will jump out at you.

this is great, since I turned off my tool path file name and a few other things, it is all so tidy and easy to see thanks  for that!

There's a pretty simple way to do this without using any add-ins, unless I'm missing something about your question:

  1. Click on your machine group to select all operations
  2. Right click in the toolpath manager
  3. Select "Edit selected operations" then "Edit common parameters"
  4. Click the check-box next to planes and set your planes

 

This is a rule of Thumb after any import. IMHO   ( double check tool numbers and feed / speeds as well ).

Adding WCS check was the first thing I did to the post of our 4-axis machines. It is unfathomable why in tombstone programming where WCS never changes between ops I can't lock it in Mastercam.

I emailed my re-seller yesterday and requested a WCS check be added to the post. They replied no problem, it's on the to-do list.
