    V25 Simulate

    Am I correct in assuming that Simulate only uses the raw, calculated XYZ data, and it does not take into account the manual input codes added to the Post Processor.

    For example my PP's header consists,

    "%"
    n,metric_mode
    n,t,"M06"
    n,rapid_move,"G40","G90","X0.","Y0.","Z10.","S1000 ","M03","F1000"
    n,coolant_on

    The XYZ move data encased by "" is ignored.

    Thanks

    Yeah, Simulate runs off some internal Bobcad representation of the toolpaths, not the G-code. Predator Backplot runs off the code.
