  1. changing the control definition (default 9999.999 mm) doesn't give me the ability to fill in a value larger than 15000 in the tolerance tab in a operations toolpath (for example surface finish contour). I think this is some sort of limit set in mastercam itself and not in the control or machine definition.
  2. Hello, I’m having a problem with my tolerances in Mastercam X8 and X9. I want to mill a workpiece in a clamping position where it contains contours with radii of 25000mm. The maximum arc radius, in the arc filter / tolerance tab in every toolpath operation, is set to a maximum of 15000,01mm. The result is a toolpath where a long radius is cut in many segments of several mm. You can see this with the backplot toolpath option (display endpoints button on), and will result in a bad finish on the machine. Is there a way so that I can change this maximum value? If not, is there a simple workaround for this problem? I know I can shorten the segments with smoothing turned on in the tolerance tab, but this doesn’t give me a good enough result on my machine.
