Hi, I'd like to ask if I'm the only one experiencing this issue, or if it's a general issue with the Gmoccapy GUI?
When I perform a fresh installation on a virtual machine, I get the same behavior. So I assume it's a general bug in the Gmoccapy GUI.
Please let me know your experience... Thanks

You can easy change it.

Add this code to gmoccapy.py file to "def on_btn_apply_tool_changes_clicked"

        if "G43" in self.active_gcodes:
            self.command.wait_complete()
            self.command.mode(linuxcnc.MODE_MDI)
            self.command.wait_complete()
            self.command.mdi("G43")
            self.command.wait_complete()

like this:

1) G43 must be activated
2) after input new value in cell you MUST confirm it for example by key ENTER, then you can click on Apply
3) after click on Apply button you will see right correction value

You probably have tabs on that line instead of spaces.

It's a good idea to set this permanently in Geany:
stackoverflow.com/questions/5287849/how-...e-in-geany-on-ubuntu

I tested the code yesterday and found that it's a good idea to go back to MANUAL_MODE:

        if "G43" in self.active_gcodes:
            self.command.wait_complete()
            self.command.mode(linuxcnc.MODE_MDI)
            self.command.wait_complete()
            self.command.mdi("G43")
            self.command.wait_complete()
            self.command.mode(linuxcnc.MODE_MANUAL)
            self.command.wait_complete()

thank you for your answer,
so the code block is included like your post and i didn't get an error.
The change of the length in Z is working (with apply) but the diameter doesn't change still not.

So try this:

        if "G43" in self.active_gcodes:
            self.command.wait_complete()
            self.command.mode(linuxcnc.MODE_MDI)
            self.command.wait_complete()
            self.command.mdi("G43")
            self.command.wait_complete()
            self.command.mode(linuxcnc.MODE_MANUAL)
            self.command.wait_complete()
        
        self.stat.poll()    
        toolinfo = self.widgets.tooledit1.get_toolinfo(self.stat.tool_in_spindle)
        if toolinfo:
            self.widgets.lbl_tool_no.set_text(str(toolinfo[1]))
            self.widgets.lbl_tool_dia.set_text(toolinfo[12])
            self.halcomp["tool-diameter"] = float(locale.atof(toolinfo[12]))
            self.widgets.lbl_tool_name.set_text(toolinfo[16])
