Problem with G18 and G19 commands in path wb

Post by Guet »

Hi,
I want to create circular paths in XZ and YZ planes. So I made custom paths using G18 and G19 commands.
But when I do the simulation I get wrong results. It seems that the operations are always made in the XY plane.
Does anyone know if it is a real problem for the milling or just a display problem from FreeCAD ?

I am pretty sure that the simulator works only on XY - as do most Path commands.
