CW-116304 CSR-20910 TechDB In Turn mode, when you right click on any Turn feature in the feature tree and select parameters to view the Feature Parameters dialog box, by clicking on the TechDB ID on the strategy drop-down list launches TechDB application and displays the features and operations. However, data for the wrong TechDB ID is getting displayed.
2. CWR-2054 –– Toolpath When the 3 Axis Mill Toolpath generation method is set to ‘Advanced’, the Offset Curve option 'Contain only' for Constant Stepover operations behaves like "Contain and Avoid", resulting in incorrect toolpaths.
3. CWR-2048 CSR-20603 Toolpath When the 3 Axis Mill Toolpath generation method is set to ‘Advanced’, for the specific part’s Area Clearance toolpath, the tool diameter is 100% engaged in the 'Area Clearance' 'Pocket In Core' pattern due to incorrectly considering the stock geometry with XY stepover.
4. CWR-2044 CSR-20516 Toolpath When the 3 Axis Mill Toolpath generation method is set to ‘Advanced’ and the toolpath is generated for the specific part using Lace Pattern, the resultant toolpath has inconsistent behavior for entry moves.

CWR-2033 CSR-20153 Toolpath When the 3 Axis Mill Toolpath generation method is set to ‘Advanced’ and a Z Level toolpath is generated for a specific part using a tool with tapered non-cutting portion, a poor quality toolpath is generated. Increasing the toolpath length amount causes more cycle time. This issue was not present in CAMWorks For Solid Edge 2019 version.
10. CWR-2031 CSR-20136 Toolpath When the 3 Axis Mill Toolpath generation method is set to ‘Advanced’ and a Z Level toolpath is generated for the specific part using Ramp linking type, the link moves move off the feature surface and tool contact is lost.

15. CW-115000 CSR-20093 Toolpath For the specific Mill-Turn part, the Link move of its Area Clearance toolpath runs through uncut stock with no control available for retracting in Z. This is happening due to presence of an unnecessary feed move.
16. CWR-2026 CSR-19943 Toolpath In Mill mode, when Z Level toolpaths are generated using the Advanced Method, if the cut type for Z level toolpath is changed to ‘helical’, then it still uses the horizontal arc parameters for calculating toolpath moves though they are not supported for the helical cut type.
17. CW-114948 CSR-20068 Toolpath For the specific Mill part, the Contour Mill toolpath gouges the part on the finish side passes when “Single cut depth” option is checked with “Spring pass” option selected at the side parameter. Gouging is observed at the Lead in.

23. CW-114623 CSR-19886 TechDB In the customized TechDB, the Default Operation Parameters User Interface Page for Probing tool is blank in Inch mode.

On generating Z Level toolpath with zigzag pattern, it is observed that the finish moves are displayed in green (instead of yellow) as it considers those moves as link moves.
40. CWR-2020 CSR-19596 Toolpath In Mill mode, whenever any Area Clearance toolpath (for which an Automatic Contain Area with Method set to “All Silhouettes” has been assigned) is generated using ‘Advanced’ method of 3 Axis Mill toolpath generation, it is observed that the toolpath gets generated beyond the Contain Area.

72. CW-110761 CSR-17757 Rebuild In the Assembly mode when any changes are done for the stock, the Stock does not update Toolpath automatically unless regeneration is performed consecutively for two times.
73. CW-110721 CSR-17737 VoluMill When 2.5 Axis VoluMill toolpath is set to Rest Machining using the "Previous Leftover", the toolpath generated is incorrect if the ‘Generate Toolpath’ command is executed from Mill Setup level.
