When I need to do this and have already created the operations as you have. I create an extra setup and put my finish operations under that. It's pretty quick and easy, all you do is create a new setup and use the same setup position as setup 1. then you can usually just drag the finish operations into the new setup. Last thing you do is run the new setup by itself and save the post.

Sorry but I did not understand, I create on setup 1 a feature that contains roughing , semi finish and finish. I don't have the ability to move to a new Setup finish only without recreating the feature.

I'm sorry I misunderstood how you had written your program. Another way to move it to it's own file is to open it up in any text editor. I usually just use notepad, go to edit at the top of the screen do a find and search for finish. it should pop up even before you have finished typing. Do a copy and paste to another file and save as your finish step. You may need to add lines to the beginning of the program to call up machine parameters (I like to call it startup lines) before the tool call. These can be copied and pasted from the other program as well. When you do the copy just place the cursor at the start point of the code to be copied or cut then scroll down to the bottom and hold the shift key down and click at the end. this will select all text in between then right click copy or cut and paste into a blank open text editor. It still will only take a couple of minutes. I have to break up programs all the time that don't fit my machines memory and have found this to be the easiest way to do it. Many times I have to break programs in the middle of operations when surface milling, and this works great for me. Don't know if it's the most conventional way but it works.

Thank you is what I do, but since many competing products have this possibility, I hoped there was a macro or something similar to do it in Featurecam too.

Not that I know of but it would be nice. I suggested it to Delcam many years ago but never heard that anything came from it. If anyone else has any ideas I would like to know also

If you are going to use a text editor, you could give all the operations you want to delete a very high priority to that they end up at the end of the program. This would make them easier to delete.
