"john" or whomever you are
I am sorry and did not mean to offend you. We could go back and forth quoting our resumes and experiance and offending each other. I will only say that I have 20 years of experance with Swiss machine that has not been behind a desk and most of that with Star machines.
Hopefully you find software that satisfies you at some point.

i have 30+ years of experience setting up, running and programming machine tools.
honestly, we have posted out code for four different machines and every one of them had alarms or were stopped before they crashed.
we work hand and hand with the machine tool builders and some of the changes we have suggested to the machine tool builders have been put into the ladders for new machines.
please don't insult us, machinist/programmers by saying somebody who sits behind a desk reading from a machines operation manual knows more about how equipment operates.
you know your software but partmaker does not know how these machines run.
what confused me is how when i was at a partmaker training class about a year ago, the individual who runs your training department has never ran or set up a lathe. he told us he operated a wire edm machine.
