Customizing CAM templates: unavailable options?
(OP)
How can I bring the 'check tool and holder' option to the front panel of the Flow_cut operation? I have to switch it off multi-axis paths. (tilt-axis etc.)
Thanks in advance

Regarding the OOTB dialogs, we don't expect them to be perfect for everyone. We expect new users to be able to explore and find the settings they need to change. I understand that most users only use a subset of the sometimes hundreds of options available. My challenge is that everyone uses a different subset, so this is why we provide dialog customization.
You are doing exactly what we expect - organize the dialog for your use. You put the parameters you use the most on the front page where they are easy to access. This optimizes the interraction for you.
Of course, with each release there is an upgrade task. You can either start with the OOTB dialogs and customize them once, as you have done; or you can migrate your old templates. Of course, if you migrate your old ones, you need to be very careful not to miss new parameters or operations we have added. That's why we publish the changes in the release notes.
