Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Bobcad

When drawing a keyway in a part you generally need to use the trim function
to cut the ID at both sides of the inside diameter at the rectangular
section. The problem was the cutting direction kept changing by itself when
ever I went to make a change on one segment then moved to another the first
one would change back. I found it very frustrating compared to ver 17.
I haven't used it now for about 7 months but am going to call Bobcad and see
if the have a version 18 with the bugs fixed.
