Tool change AuroReturn to work instead of machine position

Hello.
I have a Router with an MK3 controller.

I would like to use the "AutoReturn" Feature after tool Change. The problem is that "AutoReturn" returns to the Machine position before the Tool Change procedure. When I switch from a small end mill to a longer end mill the machine may plunge directly into the workpiece after the tool change (depending on length of the new end mill end safe hight). I would like to AutoReturn to the Work position (which then includes the new tool length).

Is it possible to change this behavior?

Autoreturn returns to work position.
You can check and/or modify M6 script.

Actually it doesn't. At least not with my machine.
I have Tool 1 active and jog to the surface of the workpiece.
Then I set the work offset of all axis (for simplicity) to zero. (Work: 0/0/0 Machine: 204/256.3/29.5)
Then I click on machine--> tools --> change --> tool 2.
The Router drives to safe hight and then to the tool change position. I change the tool and click OK.
The Router drives to the fixed Tool sensor and descends the z axis until switch is triggered (then again with low speed).
When the tool length is measured it drives up to save hight, then back to X and Y.
As last step it descends the Z axis to the starting Z MACHINE position --> Work:0/0/-6.533 Machine: 204/256.3/29.5

I attached my config and a screenshot.

I had the same problem. I decided to compromise.
I have under Settings / Tool Change -> at "Tool Offset"

"Set Offset" activated.
"Enable Offset" is set to Enable
"Auto Return" is set to Enable

I also changed a script.
Settings / Scripts / M-Code / M6 -> there I entered the command "G53 Z -5" in line 15.
Now the machine moves before storing the XYZ coordinates, the Z axis to machine position -5
So almost to the top.

For me it works pretty well.
I should have been able to write that in the PP. But then I would still have the problem when measuring the tool length by using the GUI

I will fix this. Seems like wrong default script was included in distribution.

"So almost to the top" --> I changed it to "G53 Z 100" because my machine coordination system starts at the bottom.
This works great as a workaround. Thank you.

@Planet-CNC Thanks for fixing it. Could you please post the right default script?
