My Stock Model isn't respecting my axis sub roughing, any ideas?

Not really without seeing what your seeing in a file. I normally don't use Axis sub with stock models. My only guess would be to make a dummy one and then play with the rotation in that dummy one until it falls in place where you expect it.

I dunno this file seems to be buggy as hell.  Circle mill earlier was not letting change the depth of the hole regardless of depth setting method.  Probably something stupid with this file.  Seems aweful common in my experience with 2020 so far.  Might be pc related somehow.  

Transform also seems to act different now as well in regards to the copy source operations setting, as in no matter what it will post out the source ops as part of the rotation transform, often leading me to have to manually ghost the op and then not have it selected in the dialog.

Second file now I've been working recently that I used dynamic mill with axis sub and it isn't removing material from the stock model.  That's 2 for 2 that it hasn't worked in 2020.  I'm going to have to try some other stuff.

edit, just tried it with contour and it doesn't cut the stock model either.

Guess I'll boot this one off to QC or tech support and see what they can tell me.
