hello. I am having an issue when saving toolpaths in partworks 3.5. I have assigned tool numbers to each tool in the tool database. However, when saving toolpaths it is telling me that two different tools have the same tool number which obviously does not correspond with the numbers that I assigned to each tool.The program will not allow me to bypass.

If you have a toolpath that was created before you assigned the numbers to the tools in the database then that will used the original tool numbers.

To get round that you need to go into each toolpath and reselect the tool from the database and then calculate the toolpath.
