Dave pravi:
OK.. now I am confused. I haven't looked at Les' jog during tool change fix.
Where is that fix documented? Is it in the Wiki?
I have no idea why that is not in V2.4. Perhaps no one asked that it be
included?
Are you saying that you can do a jog during a tool change but you cannot do a
jog during a pause?
I can clearly see the value of doing a jog during a pause as I have seen
cutters get bound up with stringy swarf many times.

The fix has no other documentattion than just posts on this list long
time ago.
It alow jog/touchOff during tool change as it's executed when toolchange
appears. How to execute it just on M1 or pause I don't know.
From discussion there are some user's that realy like that feature
enabled and in opposite group that say's this is danger operation. On
big commercial machines that sort of thing is (can be) enabled and only
warning in manual tell's that this can be dangerous. I don't think that
we need some automatic here. KISS is the best. If user pause machine and
stop spindle collant's or whatever or jog machine the 1'st thing when
machine resume operation is to move xyz to last coordinate in linear
move. If they hit fixture that's operator problem not the problem for
developer of software. So before resume the user is responsible to jog
machine back into position when linear move can't hurd and before resume
to turn on spindle collant as is before.
