Z constuction depth

Recommended Posts

Well, i finally moved up to V9 this week. I've been playing with it and so far so good. One question i have is whenever i create a toolpath my z constuction plane depth always reverts back to Z0 as soon as i finish selecting the geometry. This happens for all toolpaths ( contour, pocket, surface, etc )Is there a setting i can change somewhere, or is this tied in to the WCS. not a big problem really, but kind of annoying.

Now I've just run into the same thing.

Using Ver 9.1, mill level 3. confused.gif

 

Anybody find any reason for this or a way to stop it??

 

I found Z depth going back to 0 after every toolpath. I like to create toolpath boundries at Z 1.000 or .600 etc, if I decide to redo part of the boundry after a toolath, now it's at Z 0 again!! mad.gif

 

??????????????????
