X2 (point) depth filter

[Thad]

Has anyone got the new depth filtering feature to work? It's in the point sorting dialog box. You can read about in the MR2 What's New file. It's in the Router section, but in X2 is supposed to work in Mill.

 

If you have 3D wireframe and window or mask on arc to select your drill points, sometimes the top hole gets picked and sometimes the bottom hole gets picked. Depth filtering is supposed to allow you to select the highest or lowest Z depth to drill. I still get staggered heights.

When I window points that are on 2 different Z planes, I'm only getting the top points. Even if I set the sorting to the lowest Z depth.

Thad,

 

I tried it out and got same problem. The option "depth filtering" feature doesn't work. I use Mask on arc > window , it pick all arcs, doesn't matter what depth.
