On the VR turning software I cannot drag and drop the tooling as described in your tutorial. We have recently installed the software on new machines and wonder if you have encountered this problem.

Just had a try here on the latest version (1.28)
My tooling was full and I found I couldn't drag some tools in from the library- then remembered that if a tool is already in the tool carousel, you won't be able to drag and drop it again.
I used right-click > remove and took out all the tools, then I could drag and drop from the library, and drag and drop within the tool window to swap their locations.
If you still can't drag and drop you may have to rely on the right-click and insert > menu .

What OS are you using by the way ?

The software is an early version and not up to date. However we used it on our old computers and it worked fine. We are currently using windows xp. Do we need permission to download the latest version to go with ouir curent licences.
