    Drilling popup screen disappears

    I'm using version 5 revision 11. The drilling procedure works as it should until I recalculate a tool path. After recalculating any tool path, if I try to run the drilling procedure it will only get as far as selecting the circle. After pressing enter the popup screen does not appear and the command prompt comes back up. The only way I can get the drilling procedure back is to restart rhino so that MadCam reloads. Am I missing something or is this a bug?

    There is a bug with recalculate. Joakim is working on it right now. He should have the fix for us soon.

    There was a new service release yesterday. From what I can tell, the recalculate feature is working again.

    Thanks for the updated version but it appears that the original problem I posted still exists: Drilling does not work after doing a recalculate on another tool path.

    Yup, I see that too. We'll get that fixed.

    I didn't update to the previous release so I could replicate the behavior that Cutter7 explains. Now after an update I can reopen the drilling dialog.
