    Missing Tool Number

    Hi Scott,
    Running through a milling job (V2.05).
    After it's plotted, pick on any line (selected entity info) and it says (for example) 'LINE AT FEED Tool 10'.
    If you pick on a helix (unless it is at the start of it), it says 'HELICAL ARC CCW'.
    It doesn't state the tool number (like it does for all other moves).


    Also, I know we covered it before, but (for me) it would be REALLY good if the screen could show T, H + D info (and even S + F although not so important).

    Cheers,
    Terry
