x4 to 1028 equivalent for "core mill"

[DCOPE17]

Had to use x4 for some time now and can't remember what toolpath I need to be like "core mill" where you define 2 chains, the larger chain is the material and the smaller chain is the part and it does not cut air, only material. 

 

What is the 2018 equivalent to that? 

 

Thanks everyone.

I got it working, sort of. It pockets between the material border and the part... but not exactly like core mill where it starts outside of the material and completely removes all excess material with the remaining finish material in the operation.

You need to switch the machining region strategy, it's probably set to stay inside.

Yep, that was it.

 

I toggled that earlier but guess it went back when selecting Dynamic Mill

 

Thanks everyone, my first day at my new job is looking pretty good.
