    Rotate a G150 pocket cycle

    I have been trying to rotate a G150 pocket using G68 and it don't seem to
    work. Is there a setting I need to change or some other trick to make it work

    Parameter 57 COMMON SWITCH 1 the one labelled ENA ROT & SC should be a 1 for Rotation and Scaling to be enabled. If it is a 0 you do not have rotation.

    This is an option that needs a code number to activate but I don't know the cost.
    An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.

    I have Scaling & Rotation on

    Edit
    I don't think it is possible. I have been messing around with irregular shapes with islands and I can see that it would be impossible to rotate all the cut paths needed to do these weird shapes with islands.

    Thanks for looking anyway.
