I had this same problem and found that if you go into folder options in windows explorer and uncheck the box called Always show icons, never thumbnails, then change your view tab to large icons every thing is back to normal.

All of these ideas will work, I like the U value the best may I add that if you would put a variable in the U address you could make it adjustable and you could adjust the variable if any more adjustments were needed and not have to edit the program and allow the operator to make his own adjustments. example U#510 then just put the adjustment amount in register 510.

This should help someone passed it on to me a few years ago. Fanuc Variables.xls

Up in the top left comer where it says Nc code format change from Box to Canned and you should get a G76 I think that will figure all the passes for you

Thanks Chris that is what I was looking for I had not got to the finish pass yet. Thanks Again Chuck

Hi Guys Hope someone can help me I am a new MC user using Ver 7 doing a 2D High Speed (2D Dynamic Rest Mill) I have a 2.5 dia hole I am milling it out to be a 2.515 square with .5 radius in the corners. When I post out the tool path I get a whole bunch of XY moves on the return path it makes the program very large is there any way to suppress these XY moves and make the program smaller or there a reason for them that I am not seeing.
