Re: G92 and M99 code/cncpro

hey guys, my example below does not work right. After making the
numbers a little bigger I noticed that when the spindle is moving to
the new position for the next hole it also moves down :( It does loop
50 times as in the example. Well back to some of the others hints you
guys gave me!
