New in this version

• Added support for thread mill when using thread mill cycle in Drilling strategy. #6479
• Added support for tube stock in Job.
• Fixed issue where model analysis could fail if model has a bad (degenerate) face for drilling. #6146
• Updated list of Solidworks commands that don't need geometry analysis when closed.
• Toolpath preview is correct now for patterns with large toolpath. #6159
• Fixed wrong calculation of minimum and maximum radial extents for Tube Stock. #6335
• Fixed issue with wrong default parameter for Secondary Spindle Chuck, causing the height plane to be offset. #6172
• Fixed potential failure when using store as template. #5918

Changes to toolpath generation

• Fixed wrong feed for finishing pass for Turning Profile when using no drag feature. #6440
• Fixed retract below clearance radius for ID machining using Turning Profile. #6395
• Fixed potential generation failure for Adaptive Clearing for narrow pockets. #5998
• Fixed wrong linking for 2D Contour. #3672
• Fixed generation failure for Adaptive Clearing. #5954
• Fixed wrong retract for Adaptive Clearing. #3251
• Fixed fragmented finishing path issue for Turning Profile. #5744
• Fixed lead-out outside of allowed area for Turning Profile. #5726

Changes to post processor

• Added support for subprograms for Fanuc post.
• Added support for IJK when using G73/G83 for Fadal post.
• Added support for IJK when using G73/G83 for next generation HAAS post.
• Added property 'writeCuttingModes' to output colors used for laser cutting for Universal Laser DXF post.
• Added support for IJK when using G73/G83 for HAAS post.
• General improvements and simplification of HAAS DS-30y post.
• Major update of multi-axis support for HURCO post.
• Added support for controlling G61/G64 smoothing using property 'useSmoothing' for UCCNC post.
• Added more information for circular moves for Dump post.
• Improved rotary axis clamp handling for HAAS posts.
• Turn off coolant on tool change for Mitsubishi turning post.
• Added warning when using work offset 0 with non-zero work offsets at the same time for common ISO posts.
• Only allow up to 90deg sweeps for G2/G3 moves when using R-word (radius) instead of IJK-words (center) to avoid problems on some CNCs where the center could potentially drift significantly for a correct NC program and hence result in wrong machining. The problem can be exposed when cutting around 180deg arcs on some CNCs. If a particular CNC does not have a such a problem the post can be customized to allow bigger arcs. IJK-mode remains unchanged and is recommended over using R-word.
• Added spindle stop and M0 at tool change for UCCNC posts.
• Changed maximum sweep to 90deg for circular motion for Datron post for improved part quality.
• Changed post to use IJK for G2/G3 instead of R for better part quality.
• Limit circular motion to maximum 90deg for improved part quality.
• Changed HAAS post to use IJK for G2/G3 instead of R for better part quality.
• Force G95 for tapping for Fanuc post.
• Updated tool definition for CAMPlete APT post.
• Updated tool support for CAMPlete APT post.
• Only output G69 when G68 is active for HAAS posts.
• Added new property 'SB3v36' to control tool changes for Shopbot OpenSBP post.
• Added 'spindleDirectionCode' property to control spindle M-codes for Shopbot ISO post.
• Fixed parametric feed support when using feed per revolution for turning posts.
• Fixed tapping support for UCCNC post.
• Fixed support for tapping cycles and dwell for UCCNC posts.
• Fixed various mill-turn issues like C-axis output for HAAS DS-30Y post.
• Fixed potential post failure for Siemens mill-turn post.
• Fixed potential error when using parametric feed.
• Fixed wrong code for Tormach Turning (Slant-PRO) post.
• Fixed inverse time support for Tormach post.
• Fixed missing G94/G95 after G96/G97 issue for Siemens mill-turn post.
• Fixed failure when using setup sheet.
• Fixed failure for driling for Fanuc turning post.
