Retract distance problem

I just had Cad++ installed and I am having problems when I probe a hole and my probe retracts past the center of the hole and hits the back of the hole which inturn retracts and hits the front of the hole and goes into a loop of back and forth hits. I went to F10 then to motion and changed my prehit and retract distance but it did not help at all. Could a setting changed when Cad++ was installed? If so how do I fix it?

  • Didnt mean to jump in and hijack the thread but thanks Wes. Adam I started on 3.7 mr3 and It never had to "tweak" my prehit / retract on a hole or cylinder so you have nothing to fear. Circle funtions will figure it out on their own ( or not in some rare cases Like Was pointed out ) . Another "word" on "NEW" versions. The More things change the more they stay the same. Dont be afraid. The thing I would be more concerned about when you do upgrade. How many revsion 'jump" will it be ? Waiting too long may not always be the best. That has been known to be hairy. Obviously, SMA's dictate part of this also, so It may be out of your control.
