      <description>&lt;P&gt;I have 300 holes for a waste board with embedded T-Nuts.&amp;nbsp; For each hole there is actually the wider recessed bit for 3/4" in diameter followed by a smaller 5/8 diameter for the length of the t-nut followed by 1/4" diameter for the remaining amount of material thickness to the other end of a 3/4" MDF board.&amp;nbsp; When setting up a CAM tool path, Fusion mills the top holes separately from the deeper holes causing a lot of traversing of the machine between positions instead of simply milling all 3 before moving on to the next position.&amp;nbsp; I am not able to change this behavior.&amp;nbsp; Is there something I can do?&amp;nbsp; Currently the algorithm is extremely inefficient.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I've enclosed a screen shot of the tool paths simply selecting 3 hole sets.&amp;nbsp; This looks even messier with the full 300 on the board.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;With 300 features to select, this may not be the optimum solution but you can change the order of machining using this switch.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Preserve Order.jpg" style="width: 242px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/668625i107D7B56B0AC4C68/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Preserve Order.jpg" alt="Preserve Order.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I already tried the “preserve order” option and it made no difference. Could there be a bug? &amp;nbsp;The sample I provided is only 3 hole sets out of 300 for this example for my request for help. Each hole set has three contour shapes (circles) selected (so 900 separate cuts in total). &amp;nbsp;The only way I can achieve minimal travel is to manually create 300 separate tool paths. &amp;nbsp;Not at all practical. &amp;nbsp;I hope there is a better way.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;We'd (hopefully) be able to give you a much better answer if we could see the file.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;File &amp;gt; Export &amp;gt; Save to local folder. Return to thread and attach the .f3d file in your reply&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Please see attached.&amp;nbsp; Under CAM (Manufacture), the example tool path is "2D Pocket - TEST".&amp;nbsp; I've suppressed the rest.&amp;nbsp; The hole edges were selected by set and "preserve order" is turned on.&amp;nbsp; I'm trying to get the milling to complete each hole set separately before moving onto the next minimizing horizontal travel.&amp;nbsp; The three sets of holes were selected in sequence to do this but the 'preserve order' doesn't do anything.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Well, this certainly is NOT behaving as I'd expect.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;As a work around for this part, here's what I would do (actually, I'd do this anyways because I'm &lt;STRIKE&gt;lazy&lt;/STRIKE&gt; energy efficient)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Pattern.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;File and picture are attached&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Just make your all operations for 1 hole and put them into a pattern.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
