V9.1 Stock flip

Lathe V9.1

I have a component, dia 42mm, length 108mm, to be turned from both ends. I put toolpaths for 1st end in a group and generated and used perfectly good code. Used stock flip in a group of its own then 2nd end toolpaths in yet another group. Again generated good code. So far so good.

 

Subsequently I wished to tweak some geometry on 1st end but found it difficult. If I adjusted the stock that I could see - which was flipped - it had no effect on the 1st end toolpaths. The only way that I was able to do it was by deleting the stock flip, tweak geometry, re-apply stock flip, then cut & paste it between the two other groups. A lot of trouble for frequent changes.

 

What am I missing ?

Thank you
