Certainly not ignored. Whether it's a motion or an error depends on what motion mode you're in. If in G0 or G1 it's perfectly fine; it will apply the tool offset and then move Z, which is probably what's intended. See http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode/overview.html#sec:Order-of-Execution > Is this. in fact, an error in the post that should be corrected? It depends on the preceding code. If you happen to be in G17 G2 mode it'll be an error. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming.
