Hello Ive discovered an issue with my post that ive used for years, that I'd like to come up with a fix for.

Its a 4th axis Post for A axis.

I just ran into an issue that if i accidentally have a slight B tilt to my tool axis in an operation, that i dont get the correct A number in the code, it just leaves it at the prior A, and makes that cut from the complete wrong attitude.

The best thing i suppose would to just have PB error out if theres any B tilt to a tool axis. So i can go back and fix that operation.

But im not finding the piece of code that decides the A number for a tool axis so maybe i could add in an IF B then Error snipet.
