ok so on op2 on finish top contour 2d i have the retract set to 0.0 and incremental but when you run it it keeps going back to the top starting position instead of just a .050 retract.

so is the depth of the hole to bottom of hole or body diameter for drilling. if its to depth then the drill tip is .012 for a .055 drill with 135deg and you can run a form tap within .010 to .015 of the body depth. shouldn't be a problem. at .175 tapping depth you should end up with a thread depth of .135-.140
trying to do a dynamic contour on 3 sides of a part. left to right and there is a shape contour between. cant get it to work with a partial path for the avoidance. the description says it will do open contours so how do you tell it to do it.
this is with 2022
