Unwanted tool changes?

Does anyone have any issues with unwanted tool changes? When my program changes to the tool needed for that operation, it immediately changes to the tool needed for the NEXT operation. So if I need Tool #1 for op 1 and Tool #2 for op 2, Op 1 will load Tool #1 and then change to Tool #2 and attempt to do Op 1 with Tool #2. I've been going in and deleting those unwanted tool changes by hand, but it is pretty dangerous and i'm worried one of these days i'm going to miss one and not be at the machine when it changes tools. fusion.JPG

Yes or you can just change it on the post dialog. If you edit the post make sure you don't save it back to the generic post folder.

You can do it there, or in the post dialog box when you are actually posting out your program.
