Contact your Local SolidCAM Reseller and have their Post Processor department correct this this for you.

Contact your local reseller and send them the part. The best way to address a 5 axis toolpath is with the geometry. Can you attach a screen shot of your part and the toolpath?

Contact your local reseller for the post processor. Once you have one that matches what you need you can is HSS or Simultaneous 4th axis to create a toolpath.

As long as the contour highlights you should be fine. The colour scheme is a user setting, so if you want to change the colour of a highlighted line look in your SolidCAM settings.

You control whether its conventional or climb cutting by the way you select the geometry and what you set in terms of "Tool Side". For example if you choose the outer edge of the top of a cube s...
