Todd,

I just got my machine running again and ran your code. The naive cam
detector algorithm is clearly applied to the compensated path, not the
programmed path. There does not seem to be any point in using the naive cam
detector for hand written programs, though, and even so your part would
come out correctly if the Q was set to a reasonable value.

You are correct that G41 appears to turn off path blending. I wonder why
that is, hopefully somebody will enlighten us as to whether it is a bug or
intentional. I am surprised I had not noticed that as I frequently use very
small (.0005") or negative tool diameters for wear compensation. I do the
tool compensation in CAM.
