Toolpath, 2nd...

Hi!
Another Problem I've encountered: When plateaumachining sometimes VM5SP6 does not mill the flat regions (e.g. 40°). The toolpath looks like milling the regions steeper (?) than the specified angle.
I send you the file...

Best regards
Lars

Hi Lars,
Thanks for the error file. The problem occurs when you have multiple nestings of the flat area regions in conjunction with the user defined region intersecting one or more of these regions. The problem has been fixed and will show up in the next service pack. We have already sent you a pre-release to fix this problem. Hope this helps.
