Tabs created as progressive up/down moves. #1860

Closed Git-Bruno closed 12 months ago

Git-Bruno commented 1 year ago

Hi I have a problem with the tab creation since I updated to the latest version. The tabs are now created as progressive up/down moves on the z axis while it used to be a direct move to the tabs height. I cannot tell the level of the working version but it was installed in June 2022. I see the same behavior with different python versions (3.8 & 3.10). tabs cut_parms Is this the way tabs are done now or is there a different way to get tabs created as before ?

Attached the gcode I used for the test. Test_tabs.txt

I found that this is the way tabs are generated when the laser cutter option is checked in the CNC config panel. The display of the paths is a bit confusion but the tabs are uncut thanks to the M5 commands in the 'tab up' sections.
