If i understand correctly, what you want to do can be done with a custom Macro.
a custom Tool Change M6 by definition is CUSTOM.
when using a Custom M6, the Wizard is not involved in the Custom Macro, the Wizard will not create or edit your custom macro.
Resources are the CNC12 Operator manual which covers codes you can use in the custom macro to achieve your goals and the introduction to macro programming guide.

Having a probe that measures a tool with its actual value is essential in a CNC program. I don’t understand why there’s so much reliance on offsets everywhere. I’ve been a CNC machinist in general mechanics since I was 16, and now, at 45, I can confidently say that we never work like that. You set the program origin, then machine using the tool’s real values. Origin offsets generally come into play when ensuring continuity in machining, such as when flipping the part, which results in some material loss. Anyway, I want to work with the same logic I apply in my profession.

This option should be an integral part of CNC12. It would make sense for the software to allow setting a program origin and machining directly with the tool’s actual values, without systematically relying on offsets. In traditional machining, these adjustments are only necessary for specific cases, such as flipping the part or ensuring machining continuity. However, CNC12 seems to enforce this approach, which limits flexibility for those who prefer

Nope, traditional CNC is setting part 0 in relation to machine 0 and using tool offsets for all industrial CNC machines I have used since 1986

I'm tired of having to translate everything into English.
