I add my vote in the make it like v9 column. chain a toolpath, set the speed and feed to what you want, chain a new toolpath, and the speed and feed default back to whatever they were when you selected the tool, Chaining the use tools speed feed ,peck made no difference. This is a pain in the posterior, forget it just once and its anything goes at the machine tool. This never happened before. (using mastercam since v3.4) P.S. I'm current on updates. Peter

I like most things about the mpmaster post, however there are a couple of annoying things that I haven't taken the time to sort out. One when posting miltiple toolpaths with the same tool, starting values are repeated over and over in the program, also quotes are too skimpy. so for quick and dirty, simple little programs I like the haas post, for now anyway.

Latest update, jmparis I do not have your switch in my posts so no can use, I had edited my hass post using ctol : 180 #Tolerance in deg. before rev flag changes. did not work, I then edited my mpmaster post and that worked!

ctol: 180 had limited sucess, worked on a horizontal post, but not the vartical v9, nada on X

Ok, here's a post question, when transforming - rotating a toolpath. typically drilling holes around a part I get axis windup, a0 becomes a360, a720 etc. This windup carries thru subsequent tools, although the positions are technically correct, this is confusing to the operators. Is there a way to force a reset for each toolchange. Using 9.1 mr0105, X sp1 update3

p.s. this toolpath does not backplot correctly. only the entry and exit arc show, but it works fine.

Here is another formula that I use, 50+% line added to rad of hole divide by 2 with 180 deg.sweep = dead on center
