Profile path on an Involute Gear on version 0.17

[lassets]

Hi,

I have used the Involute Gear part design extruded to 14 mm and had a Gcode of the profile made on version 0.16.
When trying the same on version 0.17, I get some very large circles and odd looking flower arrangement on the paths

1. Using Part Design, make 36 teeth mod 2.5 Involute gear.
2. Using Part, extrude to 14 mm.
3. Make Path Job (Extrude as base object) and create a 3mm endmill tool.
4. Select 3mmEndMill.
5. Select Extrude object and do contour or profile on the base object.

Has anyone successfully made a GCode profile of an Involute gear on version 0.17 ?

Unfortunately your build is exactly one commit before the fix for that. Profile got broken a while ago and we fixed it yesterday.

, so if I get the latest tomorrow, the fix will be included ?

just to make sure I tried it on my local build (don't wanna be responsible for ruining someone's weekend milling):
