Dynamic mill random cut order

[Tinger]

Hello all, 

I'm milling out these slots. I picked them in the order of the blue numbers. The machine cuts them in order of the red numbers. I have rearranged the chains in the manger several times but it seems like the correlation between chain order and cut order doesn't exist. How can I tell this toolpath to start with the left slot and move to right one slot at a time?

There is an optimize cut order check box I think

That also seems to have no effect on the toolpath.... hmmmm

Whats weird it the chain order dictates the cutting order with contour, but not dynamic mill. I wonder why.

Hi Tinger, the behavior you are looking for could be achieved in this case by using transform operation to project the toolpaths in the right order. I realize this will not apply in all cases.
