I'm unfamiliar with the coding process of editing the post processor. I tried a suggested edit but it did not work out very well. The file I included is my current post processor, any help would be appreciated.

Hi Eric, @toolinghytechusa ,

 

To get the Cutting tool flute length inside the tool list, You need to add below code at given location(Screenshot).

Code:

 comment += " " + localize("Flute Length") + "=" + xyzFormat.format(tool.fluteLength);

Location :

KrupalVala_0-1616737827538.png

 

For post modification/editing, You can use any editor tool or use Visual Studio code.

 

Thanks,

I have inserted code in the location shown but it will not post out.  I posted the cps file to see where I may have went wrong.

 

Thank You, 

Eric Russell
