That is a huge improvement in the visualization, Kirk, and very welcome. However, you still have this under "It is an error if:" E~ is greater than half the distance between the starting Z position and Z~. It isn't an error here, and E can be as large as [total Z motion - P] In which case it cuts the taper as drawn in your illustration, figure 7. For error reporting in the E too long event, an error should be reported if [[E + P] gt [total -z motion]. That would need fixed in the routine itself. Thank you very much.
