Cannot Make Tool Library Work for Me!

1.  I am having a terrible time with renumber tools.  It simply will not order and renumber the tools according to the milling process I have set up.  I final went to edit tool, Post Processor Tab, and physically changed the tool numbers there.  I can no longer revert to the old Tool Library, correct? 

 

2. Also, I had some tools saved for different S&F's; they are gone!

 

3. Where is "remove unused tools" option?  Once in a while it shows up but still warns that the tools will be deleted from the library and will no longer be available.

1. I haven't used the renumber tool functionality so can't comment on that. But it is possible to revert back to the old tool library by turning it off in preview if that fixes the problem?

3. It seems to remove the unused tools you have to right click on the document in tool library and then select remove unused tools. I don't think there is any other way to do it. See screen shot

Thank you!

 

Sometimes I see “Remove Unused Tools”, but then the warning comes up, the tools will be deleted from the library.

Small screencast with Audio so turn your sound on if it is on mute, shows the tools being ordered and renumbered, hope it helps, yes a lot different but does work :slightly_smiling_face::slightly_smiling_face::slightly_smiling_face:
