Is it possible to tile along the X axis in Carbide Create?

[bmcdowel (Bryan Mcdowell)]

It does not appear that the Tiling toolpath in Carbide Create Pro supports tiling along the X axis (left to right). Is this correct?

Any idea if it is still possible to do it without the tiling toolpath?

Want to cut dados and grooves along the long side of a board 4.5" x 60" long but do not want to have to move the machine away from the wall for the traditional tiling setup.

Kind Regards,
Bryan M.
