The reason I wrote originally was that the tool path would only do the radius in/out at the first level of cut only. On the next step down the cut would plunge at the cutting point instead of the radius approach.

Well I did some experimentation with the lead in/out settings. I found that doing the 2D profile when using a .1 (inch) step down that the above would happen no matter if I made 1 or many step downs. BUT, when I change the setting from .1 to something less i.e. .05, the radius in/out would indeed happen at every step down. I just may be missing something. I also tried a .2 step down and that did not work correctly either.
