Tool database

Post by bharkin522 »

I tried to add a tool for a toolpath and when the tool database opened, I got a message stating the "Tool database opened in read only mode." How do I turn that off?

Maybe start over and add your tool to the database first? Ball peen hammer?

It isn't a message I have ever seen, wondering if it might be an operating system function rather than a vectric one, don't remember seeing any other posts on the forum about it either.
What version of software are you using & what operating system?
