Not here. I don't know if there is a way to do that without re-doing the control.

Do you not like toolpath? It takes a bit to get used to, but it's actually quite nice I think. It's a lot different than what I was used to and took me quite a while to dumb myself down enough to use it, but now I love it. It's what I consider "housewife Software" - simple enough for a housewife to learn to use in less than a day. Unfortunately, if you have been programming in G-code for 15 years, it's hard to get at first.

It has quite a bit of capability as long as you can come up with work-arounds for it's shortcomings which is not all that difficult. I like it now, I didn't at first.
