What happened?

When attempting to use M6_Macro for tool change _current_tool, _selected_tool, #5400 (from wiki) all report the same tool. current_tool should be what is in the spindle, _selected_tool should be what is passed in M6 T. _current tool would be used to put the tool back and selected_tool would be used to indicate what tool needs picked up

GCode File

(debug, Current tool #<_current_tool> Selected Tool #<_selected_tool> 5400 #5400)

[bdring]

Sorry for the delay. I can look into this problem now.

Do you know if there is a standard parameter number for current tool. I did not find anything at LinuxCNC. I saw some Fanuc references to #4120

[bdring]

There is a new branch that should fix the problem.

https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC/tree/Fix_selected_tool_param

This will go into the next release. Testing is appreciated.

[rvalotta]

I will adjust my M6 Script and try it tomorrow...

[bdring]

Did you get a chance to test this?

[rvalotta]

No as i accidently blew up my esp32. Replaced it lay night going to test tonight.

[rvalotta]

Wasn't able to give it a extensive test but it appears to be working
