My experience has been the same, when I get unplanned results it has turned out to be the settings. I agree that the UI is a little weird, when filling in some info in machining operations some stuff doesnt seem to make sense.
What I have started doing is to check surface normals on 3-d models before I ever start programming. And I use large stepovers/depths until I get the path correct, then go back and set it where I want it, saves me time. But I am getting better, I am getting alot of use out of the 3-d paths now, after alot of practice I am usually getting it right on the fisrt couple trys. |
