    KFLOP error SetToolLength(TWORD,NewToolLength);

    Hi!
    I have problem:

    If using SetToolLength(TWORD,NewToolLength) in version 4.32.
    Table is populated incorrectly.Instead of changing the current length of the tool, create a new string with the same number. Sometimes the data are not replenished at all.

    What could be the problem?

    Thanks!

    Thank you! Version 4.33 has solved problems with the table.

    But with the change of the tool having difficulty.

    1. If choose the tool manually, the length compensation works.
    2. If change the tool via the command M6 - the length of the tool is not compensated for, in what could be the problem?

    PS Why two new buttons next to feedhold?

    Hi Smouk,

    To apply the Tool Length Compensation in GCode a G43 Hxx must be included with the H word to specify which tool should be used for Length Compensation. Are you including this?

    The buttons next to FeedHold allow the operator to move forward or backward slowly while in Feedhold. See:

    Tom, thank you! In version 4.33k tool table and LenghtTool works fine.
    I asked here about these buttons next to feedhold:

    Why should they? Feedhold the new version works strange. It is not always possible to turn off. Have to press the Pause button. Press "FeedHold" work not always :(

    Thank you for your support!

    I asked here about these buttons next to feedhold:
    Were you able to watch the video to see how they work?

    Feedhold the new version works strange. It is not always possible to turn off. Have to press the Pause button. Press "FeedHold" work not always
    Normally releasing FeedHold seems to work properly, unless you are in Soft Limits or a Limit Switch. Could that be the case?

    Tom, I'm sorry - I did it until the end of the video, because I thought that you did not understand my question. Now everything is clear.

    About feedhold: works hardware limit(see in console), but does not always move on return. Previously, it was necessary to simply click on "feedhold", now it does not always work and sometimes helps button "pause".

    Yes I believe we have found some numerical roundoff issues causing this. We hope to have this fixed in the next Test Version 4.33l that should be coming out soon.
