Hello, I noticed this for awhile now but have never posted to ask this question. I would make a Flowline toolpath and want to reduce the size of the program by adjusting my filter and as I move the cut tolerance to a smaller value the program went from cutting a linear arc to stair steps, very odd. This use to work in the past if I needed to reduce the program size then I would adjust the arc filter but with Flowline it doesn't seem to be working correctly. No matter what I do to the arc filter I am unable to make it create arcs so there must be something with the solid face I selected that is trying to cut the radius with small linear moves. I was able program the way I wanted with arcs using Surface Finish Parallel and get the smaller program size too but I use to use Flowline. Any ideas? Thanks, Greg

I am making a port 3" deep pretty much its a 2 x 3 rectangle with 3/4" rads going down to a 2.25" square with .2" rads. I have this mounted between centers in a 4th axis. I am using a morph toolpath to machine the finish pas on these ports but for some reason I'm getting lines in my corners and sometimes across my flats. almost like the toolpath doesn't line up while it goes around. I am going with a .1" step-over so it should be fairly smooth. Any suggestions other than a bunch of polishing?
