Camplete and wacky arcs

We had something similar in the 2019 version. it would show our small arcs as whole circles when backplotting and collision detecting.

not sure if this will cure your issue but if you want to try it I hope it helps.

1. Start TruePath.

2. In the ribbon bar, go to "Manage > Tools > Options".

3. Click "File Types".

4. In "Additional Options", select "NCI - Circular Interpolation Move - Add Linear Move For Small Arcs".

5. Enable "NCI - Circular Interpolation Move - Add Linear Move For Small Arcs".

6. In "Additional Options", select "NCI - Circular Interpolation Move Tolerance".

7. Set "NCI - Circular Interpolation Move Tolerance" to 0.001 in.

8. Click "Close".

9. Shut down TruePath.

Create a fresh TruePath project and the arcs should be correct.

Hope this helps.
