Is there a way to get 4 axis program tool paths to display correctly in gmoccapy? currently when I load a 4 axis program it seems to flatten the moves around my A axis. Same thing happens when jogging the A axis, the tool doesn't rotate, only the DRO changes.

Will do but I tried the Geometry=xyza parameter and it doesn’t seem to make any difference. In fact, none of the gmoccapy sim files that ship with 2.8 seem to be able to display tool orientation so this is not specific to my setup. The only example I could find that shows the tool rotating is the “Axis wrapped rotary”
