Thank You Dave, I assume You are talking about the tool origin button in the operation manager, (tool parameters). I first had to change question 165 (enable tool plane button) in the Post to Yes in order to enable this button. once that was done it worked like a dream, thank You. Can I just change those questions in the post? or will that influence anything else ? because the same may apply to any of the other questions 161 - 166. related to enabling different buttons within the tool parameters.

all my machining is generated in refference to the system zero in mastercam, which will then be zero on my work offset, G54 etc. Mostly I have more components on my drawing and to shift it I have to transform all the geometry in relation to the drawing zero. is there a way that i can overcome that by selecting what my machine zero will be ? I have experimented with "Home position" and "Refference point" in the parameter page of the operation, but that did not work. Is there a way to do that, if Yes what is it ?? any suggestions would be appreceated,

When I rearange the sequence of operations in the operations manager, i sometimes loose the function of the mouse. the further i move a specific operation the more likely this happens. Once i loose the mouse I have to close and re-open mastercam to get it back. I am using Mill Ver 8. any sugestions how I can overcome this problem ? Peter

Keep it the way it is, the subject line should determine if it is of interest to a particular person or not. please keep in mind that it may be hard to decide which category a particular problem falls into. Regards Peter

MY POST IS SET SO THAT I INSERT THE PITCH, AS THE FEED RATE, THIS WAY I JUST ALTER THE SPEED AS REQUIRED, AND THE FEED IS CALCULATED FOR ME. I FIND THAT METHOD MORE FLEXIBLE OVER A RANGE OF DIFFERENT MACHINES, I.E SOME CONTROLLERS NEED THE FEED RATE PER REVOLUTION, AND OTHERS PER MINUTE. THE POST WILL DO THE REQUIRED CALCULATION, BUT IN MY TOOL FILES THE FEEDRATE IS GIVEN AS A VALUE PER REVOLUTION. REGARDS PETER

I would prefer a tool offset register default value of 0
