Is it possible to display the cutting path in 3D in QTPlasmac?

ok so actually Z sets the diameter.
You need to set the Z touch off to the diameter of the pipe.

Hello.

You asked: if you jog Y to something like 20mm then jog A around 360 degrees, do you see a circle?
No, I only see a line along the Y axis.
I've added two screenshots, before and after the move, as well as the coordinates.

Regards, Dmitry.

Please clarify how to do this?

Hello.

Sorry, I got caught up in routine and couldn’t answer right away.
I took several screenshots, they are in the archive.

Hello.
Scott, thank you very much. Your advice helped reflect the G-code and this is what happened.
I added the line GEOMETRY = A!XYZ to the INI file.
This is a screenshot after I load the G-code. The drawing is very large in relation to the size of the table.

Tell me, what could be the reason for this difference in scale?

Regards, Dmitry.

Could you share your gcode?

I have no idea on the scale problem. I see it in AXIS and also QT Dragon.

From the documentation:

This provision applies for liveplots only — G-code previews should be done with zero G5x, G92 offsets. This can be facilitated by setting offsets in programs only when task is running as indicated by #<_task> == 1. If nonzero offsets exist at startup due to persistence, offsets should be zeroed and preview reloaded.

So in order to see the preview correctly you need to set your work offsets to zero and reload the gcode or switch to a different work offset that is set to zero and reload.
