Or property change the profile top of the start
profile element of the second z pass to be the same
z level of the first z level pass. Repeat this
for the next two start profile elements on 
the following passes.

This will work but it would be better if
you could figure out how to make FFM do that
for you automatically.

Just manually add a line with that tool between the the end of the one level
to the next.

Can any tell me a good way to handle this. I milling some simple square
pockets with V11 FFM. The pocket is 1.5 dp and I would like to take 4 passes
of .375 d.o.c. I am using the pocket function defining a boundry  and user
start point. The problem is after the first pass , z rapids to the next cut
level instead of feeding. How can I control this ?
