What once was a free country
In the past I have just modeled all the parts in the same work offset but I rather not do that anymore. Currently my post (fusion, inventor, hsm) retracts Z to home when changing work offsets. Ideally I would like is to retract say 3" from safe Z but I could get by with just going to safe Z as most of the time my Z heights between fixtures are very close. I guess I would like to modify a couple posts to retract different amounts for different work.

I'm not very good at coding and can't seem to find it in the post. Does anyone know what I should be looking for?

I can post my post but it will likely take a couple posts. :nutter:

Thanks
Paul
 
Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but in Fusion Cam you can change the retract height offset.

That is for that particular operation. If you create two setups with different work offsets it is up to the post to determine what to do when going from say G58 to G59. The generic Meldas post which mine is based off of goes
G28 G91 Z0;
G90;

If I could get it to go
G91 Z2.0;
G90;
that would be great
