Dear fellow SolidCAM users!

I think i will need Your help,
I want to mill an almost sphere-like pocket on a 3 axis BZT.
Of course I define the working area, and pick contour, the step down and so on in the roughing operation. It works ok, BUT!- when the tool starts from the OUTSIDE, and works itself to the inside on the same z level, when it finishes it lifts up, goes to the next z level on the OUTSIDE diameter instead of going to the next z level in the center since its already at the center (it came to there after milling the z level from outside to the inside). I have a very hard time understanding how to edit toolpaths;

PLEASE- What is the proper way of making the tool do what I explained and want it to do?

What kind of op fo you use?

Hi! I used 3D milling, and i picked the upper contour of the spherical hole as the contour.
