Summary


Details

In Floor Wall, the retract move needs to move away from wall or it will leave 
dwell mark.


The final pass on this part is a boss. That boss wall is a sealing surface. On 
final pass the tool retracts up in Z axis and rubs along the boss wall leaving 
a dwell mark. Need to have a retract away from the boss wall prior to Z 
retract.



Solution

 In Non Cutting Moves the Minimum Clearance Distance is critical in getting a 
retract to output. If the Minimum Clearance Distance cannot be met it will 
output a retract in Z axis only. Set the Non Cutting Moves--> Retract Minimum 
Clearance Distance to zero to force the tool to move away from the wall.
