Retain G43

Am I using RETAIN_G43 correctly?
I would expect the G43 to start automatically after every tool change.
The behavior is the same in both AXIS and Gmoccapy.
 

I think that retain G43 only takes effect if you have programmed G43 once (possibly as a startup G-code)

My startup code:
If I have: After a toolchange, the Z correction takes 0.

If I have: After a toolchange, the Z correction takes on the value of the last selected tool.

Than it seems not to work as it should

OK that means I need to fix that on September meeting.

Can confirm G43 is not retained after a consecutive commanded coordinate move. Preview shows visually but its not being added to coordinate moves

I would like to ask you to explain your post more simply. I struggle with English. I understand the words you are saying, but I don't know what you mean.

In the video you need to watch:
- "Z" offset tool
- Coordinate "Z" in DRO
- preview
- what happens when I start the G43

I think It is wierd.
