    V22 - Ramping available? (versus plunge)

    Does anyone in V22 have the ability to "ramp" into pockets instead of just plunging?

    I have a "ramp" button, but it is grayed out - implying that it is not available for anyone or that it's an additional cost. My version is the "full" v22 versus but does not include the equidistant offset for waterline milling.

    You need to put a point in the pocket and select it the same way you do the geometry before you can use the ramp.

    Thanks! What a great surprise! I'm almost certain that wasn't covered in their training videos...
