However, on the last one, three corners of these work fine but the 4th one is not working like the rest. It's as if BOBCAD sees the lines seperatly and not joined to one continous line (path). It was created just like the others but is there a command to join two lines? Or is there another issue?
I've deleted and re-drawn this corner 3 times and each time it acts the same- I've even increased my circle radius to be sure the lines would touch. But it still treats the line as ending and the radius as a new beginning instead of simply continuing to go along the complete path. For a visual- use a P and start on the right side of the bottom and travel up and then right around the hoop of the P.
One other clue- when we compute to toolpath, it actually moves from 'inside' to 'outside' on the compensation for the tool even though only right or left is selected. Very odd.
Hope this is an easy fix!
Thanks.
