Pocket Circle/Arc Interpolation #343

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Generate a Circle using FreeCAD
2. Import it as STEP File
3. Generate a Pocket for the Circle

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Hi,
first of all i would like to say thanks for that great Program.
I have noticed, creating a pocket operation for a circle produces G-Code with a 
lot of small g2 segments. As my machine is a scraprap, it takes "very long" to 
machine such a circular pocket because it accelerates a lot. 

The Profile Operation works like it should, and generates only two arc segments 
(two g2 code lines)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows 7 HeeksCNC 0.21.0

Please provide any additional information below.
