Maybe I'm doing something wrong, so I would appreciate a little help.
In trying to define a button endmill/toroidal endmill in the tooltable (Sprutcam 7), I go to 'Torus Endmill', I put the diameter of the cut width - in this case 10mm - then input the radius of the button insert - which in this case is 5mm - and Sprutcam doesn't like it. The number for the radius goes red to highlight a problem, and then Sprutcam tries to correct it to zero radius if i try and add the tool. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here? Pics of tooltable and cutter below. Thanks

Sorted ....with a little bit of a red face on my part.
The radius is of course 2.5mm not 5mm |
