    Cycle wizard

    Hello
    in the machine>cycle menu there are several wizards to create predefined toolpaths, but all of them generate a command line that can be used in MDI.
    Wouldn't it be possible to have them generate a complete g-code file that includes the start and end codes, and the spindle commands (M3, M5, Sxxx)?
    I saw that many of the operations in the menu (latest version just downloaded) are grayed out. Are they still waiting for implementation?

    Grayed cycles are implemented for now.
    Cycles are very machine specific and making generalized version is not trivial. To make them really useful some other things need to be implemented first.
