Tool properties loading incorrectly

With the recent update April 2023 (Not sure if it's related) my milling tools are not loading properly. Fusion is converting the tool tip diameter from ~ .05" to .5" upon save.

 

Ex: In the tool library my tapered mill is set  to .0568" when saved it renders as .5" or 1/2.

 

This is only happening with the tapered mills using the Amana factory tool library.

Any help will be appreciated. Screenshots attached before.jpgafter.jpg

I'm having the exact same issue. Can't seem to find any solutions.

To clarify, I'm using the SpeTool library. I've also tried manually creating tools and still find the same issue. Only with tapered endmills.

Changing from ball nose to bull nose and/or changing flute count seem to be the best workaround. Some on other threads have reported success by changing the degree of the taper.

Thank you for the reply. The only thing I can think of is I saved a process
as a template. I didn't see the warning that said, something to the effect
of, tool data can't be undone. Found a work around by copying my Amana tool
settings to a duplicate of a similar stock fusion tool.

Hope this helps.

I am also seeing this issue with the latest update - can we open a case with Autodesk?

A case has already been opened, and we have this fixed internally. This bug will be fixed in an upcoming update!

As a workaround, check out post #2 in this thread
