CAM missing stages of toolpath
Can someone please answer this hopefully simple question? When I highlight by clicking setup or opereations and then apply the post processor it generates all stages (adaptive, bore etc) but then it doesnt generate the code for the final 2D contour? To have it run this I have to highight this stage and then apply the post processor?

Well a video and the .f3d file would be nice to see what happens.

Thanks for looking at this, its just an stp file I'm playing around with. I either had operations highlighted (click once) I had clicked contour (the final toolpath) and then ran the post but the contour toolpath was not generated for either files? If I highlight (click once) operations then simulate it runs all 3 toolpaths correctly? Sorry I tried to attach the .tap file but there was an error saying its not a valid file extension.

Could you upload the .f3d?
With the stp we can't see your toolpaths.

It works OK for me, what post processor are you using and have you tried any others.

So what do you get when you just select the setup and press post process?

It is posting correctly but I tried it like that before, I swear it has posted differently when I have tried in the past or perhaps its just when I upload it into mach3. I cant investigate further for a week and then I will. Thank you for looking into it and I may post again
