The Edit Common Parameters dialog box (available from the Toolpaths Manager’s right-click menu) sets values for one or more toolpath parameters for several operations at the same time.

Edit Parameters box highlight.

In Mastercam 2024, we have improved how we display shared planes and your ability to modify the planes of selected operations when you use this dialog box to access the Toolpath Coordinate System.

This image indicates the same "WCS" plane for every toolpath listed.

To modify the planes of multiple selected operations, click the Planes button in the Edit Common Parameters dialog box to open the Toolpath Coordinate System dialog box. When the dialog box opens in Mastercam 2023, Mastercam populates all the fields in the dialog box. When the dialog box opens in Mastercam 2024, Mastercam only displays the planes that are common to the operations, and planes that are not shared are left blank. This enhancement allows you to easily change any shared planes without effecting planes that are specific to individual operations.
