Rotating doesn't work with keys
Hi Les,
trying to rotate the part with "<" or ">" or the grid with "," and "." doesn't work.
Writing an angle into the box at the bottom works with rotating the part.
Any settings wrong here ?
Thanks,
Richard

The output is a file with Y-values converted to A-angles and scaled to the diameter you have to define as variable via an operation. Attached is a job file, a screenshot of my backplotter to show the result and the modified ...

Which PP to use ?
Hi Les,
I have the rotary axis parallel the x-axis and want to do a regular rotary milling job.
Which pp must I use to convert Y in A in plain gcode converted arcs to line segments?
Thanks
Richard
