    Exclamation Auto Tool Setter Button IH taylored !

    I have the first working rendition of the macro for the auto tool setter button of the Mach main screen new lock down version. I won't go into a lot of details right now, but I will attach the file.
    It will need to be unzipped and stored in the macro folder or folders especially within any special set-up macro folders such as in my case the Smooth Stepper macro folder.
    Briefly ! Once it is in place, open Mach, go to operator then open button editor, then click the auto tool setter button and it will open in the editor. Note that all you will see is a message to the effect of Not available yet or such. Then, open file and go to stored copy of the new Hidden Script file and open it into the editor. Look it over and read the Notes and study them some. This is the important part that I learned the hard way, You must close the editor with the X button and when it asks if you want to save the file click YES ! Apparently this is the only way to get the file to store within the button script ! Its late and we can cover the specific edits required for your machine set-up later, and you will need some form of an electronic tool setter probe anyway to make it work.
    Good nite !
    And be sure to thank VMAX for his help getting this going !
