    Want to force post to generate R instead of I,J

    I'm having trouble with BOBCAD generating a G2 or G3 inputting I0 and J0 in code lines. I have a Haas VF2 Using BC V24. The program is small engraving with intricate moves. I'm guessing I can make a change in the post, but don't know what line. I have given 1st few lines of code if that would help to understand my problem. The problem line has been separated out. This is just a sample section, there are hundreds more lines with I0, J0. Thanks for the help
