Chamfer Gadget in Version 10.515

[Soapyjoe]

Hi,
I have noticed that if I attempt to use the Chamfer gadget in this version (10.515) it does not work correctly,,, However, if I us it in version 10 it is quite O.K.
Typically, in version 10,515, if I attempt to chamfer, at 45degrees, the edges around a square I get a chamfered square with a additional cross machined diagonally.... very odd!
I know I can use the "Chamfer" in Toolpath Operations but I am curious as to why the gadget does no work correctly in this later version.

Maybe because 10.5 has the chamfer toolpath and does not require the gadget?

It's not doing that for me in 10.515 with the gadget. Do you have a file you could upload?

Hi Scottanor,

I use both the chamfer gadget and the chamfer in the Toolpath Options ....
If the gadget worked well in version 10 I would expect it to work in version 10.515
I see no reason to add it to version 10.515 if it does not work on my machine
One reason why I use the gadget version is that I find I have the option to use end mills in this particular version and I have difficulty specifying an end mill in the Toolpath Options "Chamfer".
