How do you get "Autodesk Inventor HSM" to parallel lace like the old "EdgeCAM"

I'm trying to get the new HSM to parallel lace like the old EdgeCAM product use to. I've attached a "Intelitek Pro Light 1000 .nc milling operation file.

My class produce their own "Koostik" boxes as part of the course, and we use to be able to parallel lace without covering the same ground twice, but with the new HSM product we only seem to be able to use "Axial Offset" to perform a pass .5" above the cup area and then perform the final cut over the cups again.

In the old "EdgeCAM" product, we use to be able to have this done in (1) operation. How do we get this done in HSM?

Can you share your part file? This is... a lot:

But no, there is no way to make this toolpath in one go. But this also looks horribly inefficient. If you share your part file we can help make this much, much better.
