Disable Canned Cycles

New user.  Is there a way to disable canned cycle output for post processing?  Some older machines don't use canned cycles, ie G83.  In MasterCam you can output the gcode as long hand for threading, peck drilling, etc.

If you're comfortable editing you own post, just look for the function:

 

   function onCyclePoint(x, y, z)

 

Make sure that:

 

   expandCyclePoint(x, y, z);
   return;

 

is the first thing that happens and it will expand the cycle to the appropriate moves.  I had to do this for my lathe post.
