Profiling problem

[ehotle]

I'm new here.  Just put together a model that consisted of basically some circles and some rectangles inside a large circle.  I went to cutout on the cnc machine and it cut on the outside of the vectors instead of the inside as I had selected in profile.  I created the model again, since I did not save it before the toolpath save and it cut on the outside of vectors again.  I was very careful to make the profile selections and am unable to find out what went wrong.  Any help???

What version and build of Autodesk ArtCAM are you working in? To confirm this, select the Help > About Autodesk ArtCAM menu option in your ArtCAM software. For example, Autodesk ArtCAM Standard 2018 (Version: 2018.0.0 Build: 2017-03-30-0901-b7123cac7).

If you need all of the Profile - Inside toolpaths to machine inside of a selection of vectors, you'll need to create two different toolpaths, as shown in the screencast below:
