WLPC "in computer" compensation appears broken.

In waterjet/laser/plasma when "in computer" compensation is turned on the software will no longer generate a path.  It will only generate a path if "in control" is selected.  Tried it on several already proven models.  Worked just fine a few days ago.

If you're willing to upload a file that is experiencing this behavior I would be happy to investigate it further.

I have found a way to make it work.  If I do an "edit and compare" on the contour that is failing to generate and change "Use new Implementation" to "yes", the path will generate.  Could someone explain what "use new implementation" is and maybe help shed light on this issue?

 

Attached is a simple test part that exhibits the problem.

 

Edit: I'd like to add that this has been tested on two different desktop machines.

I received notice from our development team that New Implementation is a temporary setting for moving to our CAM kernel for water jet, laser, and plasma support. This setting will go away soon in an update and you should no longer being seeing this issue.
