i use the Stock setup for displaying the stock on my machine (Heidenhain controller). I only have one problem: when i have multiple toolpath groups with different coordinate systems in one machine group, then on the second toolpath group the stock setup box is wrong calculated.

[@mastercam]

Hi there! If you're referring to the stock setup that is output as part of the .H file by the post processor, we think this may be a limitation as the post processor is only looking at the initial stock setup in Mastercam and outputting that initially based off the initial work plane. The post likely lacks the logic to check and output a second stock configuration/plane setup and we're not sure that Heidenhain supports this or not. The potential work-around for this is to create separate machine groups like you mention in your question. We recommend reaching out to your Mastercam Reseller and/or post developer for confirmation.
