Tool Database issue with turning tools

Is anyone else getting a "Holder profile does not conform to tool database rules" -error when trying to add turning tools to the tool database?

 

I'm having a hard time figuring out a work-around for this!

The tool database is not compatible with turning tools. Clearly the introduction of turning functions seems a bit premature, for a complete integration in PMILL

Having support for turning (in addition to milling) is a game changer for us.

We would have been forced to change to some other CAM package if support for mill-turn machines wasn't possible.

 

So very nice that they bring out features as they become available. Even if there are big issues and many many bugs. Much better than not having the feature at all.

 

Our local support provided info on how to manually copy the tools between projects, so there is a work-around for this issue also 🙂
