Trace simulation not displaying correctly?

Why does a trace op not simulate correctly against the stock? If you turn on stock, when it gets to a trace, it will change the color of the stock where the bit moves (usually gray for me), but it won't actually show how the stock as been cut.

 

This is quite annoying! Why doesn't this work like the others?

This is usually because it is cutting into the model. If you switch off the solid body visibility, it should simulate correctly.
It is basically just overlaying the simulation graphics on top of the model graphics, so if the stock gets cut smaller, the model will show through
