CC Pro ramping specify conventional vs. climb?

Suggested new feature - is it possible to add a choice of clockwise vs counterclockwise ramping motion? Currently ramping works smoothly with conventional milling but there is a lot of reversal of direction when climb milling. Thank you.

I was trying to remember an example where the ramp & cut were conflicting, and much to my surprise the first part I looked at did it…

Climb ramp to conventional cut.

I can’t think of an example where I would want them mixed. The ramp should follow the same rule as the cut, I think. Of course then, pocket paths should give the option to specify cut direction.

Yes exactly. It would be nice to set the milling direction (conv / climb) for pocketing and ramping both, to ensure they can always be coordinated. Hopefully not too hard to program in the next version of Carbide Motion! :wink:
