I am learning Mastercam following the tutorial MCAMX2_AdvMultiaxisTutorial included in MC X3. After following the steps indicated in this tutorial, I should be the toolpath indicated in the photo1, but I obtain the toolpath of the photo2. I am rechecking the tutorial steps and I search in menus and help files without know how to change the way as Mastercam shows the toolpath. Anybody knows how to configure Matercam in order to see the toolpath in the way indicated in the photo 1? Thanks, German |

| Photo #1 is photo #2 ( just a bit hairier ) LOL Your #2 photo is showing you the vector lines ( centre line of your tool ), what direction the tool is at while cutting at that point. If you what to see photo #1, turn OFF vector display |
