    Does recalculate work for drill paths?

    In 5.0.2015.417, Recalculate toolpath doesn't seem to recalculate a drill path. Should it?

    This looks like a bug. Frequently after selecting Recalculate Toolpath, and then selecting a drill path, nothing happens. Selecting a mill path to recalculate always works correctly and after the dialog to recalculate the mill path is closed, it is then possible to go back and recalculate the drill path.

    Actually, recalculating mill paths doesn't reliably open the dialog either.

    This was a known issue in the past. Are you sure you are working with the latest service release (14)?
