LinuxCNC core behavior:
Activating G43 with zero offsets deactivates tool compensation.
In this situation, G43 behaves like G49.
If the CNC operator is not aware of this, it can have dangerous consequences.
@hansu was not aware of this in the past. See:
#3706 (comment)
I struggled with this as well.
Therefore, I made exiting the Tool Table in Gmoccapy more verbose and added the option to activate G43 when the active offset changes from zero to non-zero.
I would like to ask @Sigma1912 for their opinion on whether this is OK.
