A quick search for the tool name is possible in the tool table,
see "Entering tool data into the table", page 242
It is possible to comment out NC blocks, see "Commenting out
an existing NC block", page 208
The machine tool builder can disable the setting of presets in
individual axes, see "Saving presets in the table", page 739,
see "Presetting with a 3-D touch probe ", page 772
Line 0 of the preset table can also be edited manually, see
"Saving presets in the table", page 739
The CAD viewer exports points with
FMAX
to an H file, see
"Selecting the file type", page 349
When multiple instances of the CAD viewer are open, they are
shown somewhat smaller on the third desktop.
The CAD viewer now enables you to extract data from STEP,
IGES and STEP files, see "Data Transfer from CAD Files",
page 333
The nodes in all tree structures can be expanded and collapsed
by double-clicking them.
New icon in the status display for mirrored machining, see
"General status display", page 98
Graphic settings in the
Test Run
operating mode are
permanently stored, see "3-D view in the Test Run operating
mode", page 809
In the
Test Run
operating mode, you can now choose between
various traverse ranges, see "Application", page 815
The tool data of touch probes can also be displayed and
entered in the tool management (option 93), see "Editing tool

ROT
and
P
, workpiece misalignment can
be compensated by aligning a rotary table, see "Compensation
of workpiece misalignment by rotating the table", page 767,
see "Corner as preset", page 774
If the function for orienting the touch probe to the programmed
probe direction is active, the number of spindle revolutions
is limited when the guard door is open. In some cases, the
direction of spindle rotation will change so that positioning will
not always follow the shortest path.
With FN 16: F-PRINT, it is possible to enter references to Q
parameters or QS parameters as the source and target, see
"FN16: F-PRINT – Formatted output of texts and Q parameter
values", page 395
The FN18 functions have been expanded, see "FN 18: SYSREAD
– Reading system data", page 402
New machine parameter
