BUG: OD Groving pecking does not work

Hi All

 

So I have a part which needs a large pully grove in it, but on the old machine we would get a lot of metal stringing which got cought up on the spindle.

So I say the pecking option in groving and turned it on, and did as the help suggested and ran the simulation with path points turned on. What did I find ? no points which looked like a peck.

POSTs it out and checked the G-Code and there where no pecks.

 

So this is a bug right ?

I can't really say what the issue may be with out seeing it, but it works for this part I attached.

I just worked out why pecking was not working, if 'Smoothing' on the 'Passes' tab is turned on pecking does not.

I can confirm. Turned smoothing off and now pecking works.
