FORCING only IJK, and banishing Rs to the Tora Bora mountain range.

I just scrapped a $1000 piece of material, 22 non-stop hours of work, missed my deadline, and will make my customer miss their deadline with their customer because I got some R values that decided to make a crescent shape instead of a circle, making the OD of an O-Ring groove .030 out of round. This has happened to me in the past, and I remedied the issue by forcing only IJKs. Apparently I forgot which arc type to use the last time I created a new machine definition. Which arc type in the control definition is the least likely to ruin my life again? suicide.gif

I remember a while back this caught me....I wound up deleting the whole area in the post responsible for the "R" output on an arc....in the parc section of the post I believe you can just try to comment them out & see what happens if you do have your control def to output "R"'s. If I remember right...it did delta start to center...then again its been a while
