How to exit the "custom tool" box and dismiss changes ?

If I make changes to the "Custom tool" values, I can't see any way to close the box and discard any changes like in the "KUKA|prc settings" box where I can "Exit" without applying the values.
Did I miss something, or is there no other choice than confirm changes to exit ?

Cheers

Hello,
To be honest I've personally never missed being able to close the window without changing the values. However you are of course right that not having that button is an omission, so I've put it onto the to-do list. As it will be very easy to implement it should make it into the next release.
Best,

Hi Johannes,

The typical case for me is that I change a value, but in the wrong field.
Then I realize that I don't remember what the original value was, and I have no way to retrieve it, other than checking it on the robot console.

But this relates to an other wish of mine which is to control the tool and base values from GH.
I definitely think it would be a useful addition.

In my present job, it would be convenient to edit base coordinates with a slider, for instance, so as to see in real time the effect on the simulation.

Cheers,
