Afternoon All,

I've been programming in Catia for about a year or so now. Getting around it pretty well.

Catia tends to program offline (please correct me if I'm wrong as I often get this wrapped around my neck). The company I work for prefers the programs to be online (So every tool has a D value in the G-Code). Is there a way to set it so that Catia will require the Radius of the tool to be know as opposed to assuming that the tool is the correct Diameter, and requires no offsets?

Many thanks for any help.

Rich.
