Maybe we can already do this but I can't seem to find it.
I like to use a .375" round piece of steel to roll under the cutter when setting tool height. It would be way faster to click on the DRO and enter .375. then the Z zero has been established. Right now I have t0 zero the DRO then jog down the .375"
Also for X & Y with an edge finder. Touch off, then directly enter .100 + or - depending what side you are on end hit enter, then X - Y edge Zero has been established. Or any other offset from a feature desired. Right now I have t0 zero the DRO then jog over the .100"
This is standard controller behavior on CNC's.
