Default Tool list
How do you change the name of the "Default Tool list" or add a new tool list with its own name?

 At this moment you can not add user-defined Tool Types (Drill,Endmill,indexeed enmill, and so on) - those are pre-defined and i dont want people messing with those.
If you need a Tool Type that is not on thet list let me know which and i will do it by the next update.
You can however add Tools to the user database.
To do that
 1) Simply select Library where you want to add your new tool
 2) Select "New Tool" from "Tool" drop-down list
 3) Click on the menu button next to it.
 4) Click "Add new Tool" (it is only enabled when "New Tool" is selected from the dropdown list.)
A new window pops up where you enter information regarding your tool.
After you click "add" the tool gets saved into the library.
After a tool is added you can attach different "Cut" information to it. (IE: one tool can be used for both roughing and finishing)
The workflow "Cuts" is the same as addidng new Tool
And if you want to perform actions to Libraries
then
<p class="quoteStyle"> on the "myCut tool database" tab there is a button in top left corner.
if you click on it a menu will show up.
There you can add delete , rename and merge libraries

Like all programs, it takes a bit of getting the hang of it.
Thanks again.

Yes.
There is a bit of "learning curve" to it.
But i tried to make it easy to use as possible- i use it for my own work every day too :)
