Hello All,
Does anyone know how to set the default offset Gxx for the post-process using Mach3?
By default, Fusion360 sets it to G54, whereas I'd like it to be G58 by default.
Many thanks in advance!
Cheers,

Here you go. Don't save this in the Default post folder, put it in your personal posts so it doesn't get overwritten on the next update.
No problem!
This just came from the Mach3Mill default post in the current Fusion install, so if there are forthcoming versions this is a pretty simple change to make in the post. If you scroll down to line 473 you get this block:
if (workOffset == 0) { warningOnce(localize("Work offset has not been specified. Using G54 as WCS."), WARNING_WORK_OFFSET); workOffset = 1; }
Change it to this (as I did):
if (workOffset == 0) { warningOnce(localize("Work offset has not been specified. Using G58 as WCS."), WARNING_WORK_OFFSET); workOffset = 5; }
And that's it!
Another option would be to set the offset in the setup to 5 then right click and select make default. No need to edit the post but you'd have to remember to set the offset in any old designs or new installs of Fusion.
