qtdragon tool table issues

1. I can't enter negative values for the tool offset. For example, trying to enter -1.0 in the Z field for tool 1. I can type the "-" symbol, but then any numbers I type after that do not show up on the screen. Also, I tried manually editing tool.tbl while linuxcnc was not running. Qtdragon when loaded then displays 0.0 for any fields that had negative values in tool.tbl, and on exit saves the 0's into tool.tbl.

2. After any change to any tool, new tools are automatically added to the tool table with comment "Wear Offset <tool no>". One new tool is added to correspond to each pre-existing tool. So if I have 5 tools in my table, then edit the Z field for one of them, I end up with 10 tools: the original 5 and 5 new ones. If I then make another edit, I end up with 20 tools: the 5 and 5 from the first edit, plus 10 new ones. This quickly spirals out of control. I have no need of these "wear offset" tools and would prefer they did not get auto-generated. I'll attach my tool.tbl file so you can see what it looks like after 2 edits.

Can anyone duplicate these bugs or are they specific to my setup? Thanks!

Yes, having the same issues.
Also in JOG , when one switches from continuous to increments, a error box pops up, but clicking retry seems to work. but the error popping up is annoying.

Can you give more detail - i don't see this on the sim here.

I pushed more work to the toolt offset problem.
I think i got it all -no tool wear for non-lathes, negatives are accepted and displayed.
