    I dont see anywhere to change the cut tolerance and distance. I am running X5 MU1.

    Change the Tool Deflection Backoff tab. It is on the finish parameters page. -This is to compansate for the tool rolling over and changing the cut dia.

    Can I creat arcs in 5 axis circle mill? If not, can I control the line segments?(arc filter of some kind) Thanks

    I always engtrave by chaining the letters with partial and wait turned on. If you make sure that your chain start and end at the same spot, turn on ramp, and check "make pass at final depth" box, then you will do a constant ramp for each letter without the tool bouncing up and down so many times. If you are engraving aluminum or cold roll, then this is not that big of a deal, but if you are engraving hard steel or a superalloy, then the in and out of cut will kill your tool.

    Congratulations Jimmy, Now I should have no problem getting my lathe post fixed. Or is that still Jeremy I'm waiting on? Good to see 2 powerfull resources working together.

    I think plunge turn is a great new toolpath. I also like the new options for spindle speed and feed rate overrides for groove and partoff. It would be nice to get some of the functionality of the dynamic paths into lathe (Dynamic Turn?) in one of the next few versions.

    A new lathe toolpath with all of the logic behind dynamic contour would be great.

    Can anyone tell me where this is in my post?

    I am using Mplmaster in X5. I am doing 2 canned rough bore cycles. I am using ref. points to make sure my boring bar comes out of the hole before going home. My ref. points are selected and it shows up correct in backplot, but not in code. The approach point is recognized, but not the retract.-Bad crash!!! My ref. points work for all toolpaths except canned rough. Is this an easy fix for my post or maybe a machine def switch that Im missing. Any help would be apreciated. thanks in advance
