This post is a bit similar withe the problem. To select the start point number for the entry maybe is a solution,too

Sorry for waking up an old post but I just cant get "lead in" dressup to work with an inside path. The negative length/radius trick does not work as I can't enter a negative value.
If I edit the value in the property field I get the following error: "PathDressupLeadInOut.ERROR: Length/Radius positive not Null" and the negative value I entered is changed to positive 0,10mm.

Am I doing something wrong or is something broken?

Upload a file so that the helpers have something to play with.

What works for me is setting a start point for the inside profile, so it's not starting in a corner. Then the dressup works as you'd hope..

Thanks, I guess one has to manually edit the start point in the property fields which might be a problem when cutting multiple pockets, but it is way forward.
Now for some reason I get a voxel error when simulating the path, but that is another problem. :?
