Change at point advice

[tsaladyga]

Anyone use the "change at point" feature in X6? We are turning shafts and getting taper. We usually take care of this with two offsets, one at toolchange and the other at the end of cut to compensate for the taper. In X5 the change at point worked great, in X6 I am getting errors and a weird toolpath. Anybody tell me if they know of a bug or am I not doing this correctly?

Once again thanks you guys.

You say errors what kind of error the more information even sample code difference from X5 and X6 would be a great help or some screen shots.

Ok, i have done a screen shot of the toolpath after I choose change at point and toggle Manual antry. See the Big arc? That isn't supposed to be there. It is supposed to turn the chamfer, then turn the first dia. and insert a secondary offset to control the taper, then radius and face and son on. If I toggle off the Change at point it is fine.
