Copy Milling Job and or Machine Setup

[MillingGuy]

Hi,
I just wondered why it isn’t possible to simple Copy/Paste a whole Milling Job or within a Milling Job just Copy/Paste a Machine Setup.

Currently I just have the opportunity to save a Milling Job as a template and create a new job based using this saved template. This for me does the same as Copy/Paste a Milling Job with the overhead of saving, opening and afterwards deleting the template.

For a Machine Setup I didn’t find a solution, how to get the effect of copy/paste.

For testing purposes copy/paste would help a lot. So one starts to create a list of features for a job. To improve the process, just copy the existing Milling Job to a new one or just copy the Machine Setup within the existing Milling Job to a new one. If the improvement is successful, the improved parts goes back to former job/machine setup.

Understandable?
Bye, Harald

Copy and paste tool path group folders

hi, I wish that I could copy all the mill features in a group folder by selecting the folder and saying copy and then paste it in another milling job…

Select and copy and past multiple toolpaths

Hello, Is there a way we could get a feature to select multiple toolpaths by holding down control or shift, so that they can be copied to a group or another setup? thx.

and if the tool path is copied and pasted why is the software assigning different tool numbers… if I have a left and a right part in the file… and I assigned a new mill job for the other part (because of the stock)…and I copy the tool path from one to the other… I want the same tool numbers.!!!

Thank you…
