Got it. Turned off in post 

rot_on_x     : 0    #SET_BY_MD Default Rotary Axis Orientation
                     #0 = Off, 1 = About X, 2 = About Y, 3 = About Z

Thank you.

Doesn't work. Still have A0. in my code.

How I can turn off 4th axis so I don't have A0. in my NC code ?

I have two differant toolpath with to differant problems both are Surface High Speed Hybrid. One is gougeing the drive surface when it is going from cut to cut. I have changed to a full vertical and also change some other settings on that tab and can not get it not to gouge the vertical wall. You would think if that wall was a drive surface it would not gouge it!!!! But NOOOOOOOOOO! The other is machining a flat surface with some pads and radii around the edges. I have a contianment boundery and I tell it to st inside but NOOOOOOOOO it goes outside the containment boundery! I have been with Mastercam since version 7, But I am telling you I am about feed up with it!!!!!

How to force in the FADAL post to always output the A-axis rotation position ?

How can I get the A Axis position to post out after each toolchange whether the angle changes or not?

THIS IS HOW IT POSTS RIGHT NOW
