Tabs not getting added?

Post by Mogal »

I can't upload the file, as its too big, but as in the pics, they are clearly there.
But when calculated, and shown in preview, they are not. Not sure what I'm missing here?

I had to delete all the tool paths, save and reload, remake toolpaths, now its generating tabs...
Dunno what happened, but its working now.

Sure I read a post on here a while ago where someone had problems with tabs not showing & the solution was to increase the toolpath preview resolution, if it happens again might be worth increasing your toolpath resolution to see if they show up in the preview :lol:

Won't help this time but next time it might save you a bit of work.

My guess is that you had a toolpath that cut through the tabs, initially.

I may be wrong but, seems to me that the tabs were added to a wrong circle.
