    Non-modal G00,G01...G03

    Does anyone know how to get Mastercam to make g-codes non-modal.

    I want the post-procccessor to output the gcodes on every line.

    (right now I am trying to work around a problem where the last g-code line of a contour is G03. The first line of the next contour is supposed to be a G00 but thhe Gcode in not output so all I get are XYZ's. If I can get everything non-modal I hope to worklaround the issue)

    thanks

    I used the post available here:
    http://www.cnczone.com/forums/showth...52383#poststop

    I used the mastercam utility to convert it from MC9 to MCX.

    I used * where I could and now get non-modal gcodes in 99.99% of the lines.
    But I get about 10 instances like this:
    it seems to be a logic issue rather than a syntax isssue
