Hi guys
Mastercam X6-7 Tab cutoff as separate operation

I have have some parts with tabs, some automatic some manual.
Some of these tab are quite large and need to be cut in stages

I Have 2 problems with the generated Tab Cutoff operation

(1) If I edit the Tab Cutoff operation to do depth cuts on the Tabs it does not work i.e it cuts the full tab in 1 go
(2) If I reverse the chain direction in the master operation the Tab cutoff is on the wrong side even with no lead in or lead out

Even if I copy and paste the Tab Cutoff operation and then edit the operation for depth cuts it does not work.

Is this a Mastercam Bug

I can work around this but it seems a bit dumb for Mastercam not to be able to perform this.
any thoughts.

Cheer's
