Robot Machining Project with Vector

#1
If our G-code had vector on it, will it affect the TCP orientation of the robot when using robot machining Project using NC File? I want to add control to TCP orientation, AFAIK that can be done with Curve follow project and modify the point vector. but i dont know how to Combine curve follow project with Extrude command like in Robot Machining Project. So the end result was robot program with TCP orientation and  On OFF tools Command in the path follow the G-code command.

Can you provide more details about what you are planning to do?
Do you have a sample RoboDK project?
How do you generate your G-code file?
#3
I want to change the tools TCP at certain point. For now I am using G-code to control the robot path. So if I want to edit the TCP I believe I need to used the curve follow project. 

But for now I already succeeded to convert the G-code to a Curve using CSV, then I change the orientation using my own post processor. And to control the tools on/off I use program event "on path" and "path finish". The G-code was generated with general slicer like Cura or Simplify3d.

If you want to modify the orientation of a curve it is better if you use the Tools-Modify curves option.
