If conditions...
Does the post processor supports if conditions?

Re: If conditions...
Depends on the control language you're outputting. The SBP code my machine uses supports If conditions so I have them in my Post Processor but it's really a function of the SBP code not the PP code.
The Post Processor editing guide on the Cut2D/VCarve/Aspire Help menu shows which commands are available in a PP.

Like I say it depends if your control software supports If conditions. No problem with that type of statement on a ShopBot but I don't know about other systems.

The post processors do not support If...Then statements. There's a link to the post processor manual under Help.
What Adrian is referring to is that you can have the post processor output If..Then into the g-code, if your control supports it.
