Subject: Add G43H(*Tool) to my ToolChange.c
I am looking for a way to make the G43 offset happen automatically during a  tool change.  Can it be inserted into my ToolChange.c somehow?  I would want to use the current tool as the offset (*Tool).

Also, what is the function of the Tool ID field?

Hi Todd,

I can't think of a way to do that.  GCode intentionally keeps loading a tool and applying tool length and radius comp independent.

The Tool ID is just an Identifier.  I don't think it has any specific functionality.
