    Don't bother with the tool offset screen. Just take a test cut using one of the main screens, then measure and enter the value into the main DRO.

    Thanks, that removes one of the pain in the ass with sorting this problems as I have to go from screen to screen continuously.

    So if my switch is not repeatable, ill set the offsets from the master tool (and use the cut / measure / input method). If it is, ill set it up from the switch.

    Ive ended up setting offsets the painful way from the homing switch, seems to work better for me. Will test again today and see if its still working.
