I'm attempting to learn more about PocketShape and am having some success with pockets with bottoms, but when I attempt to pocket through the stock, I get the following pop-up where I assume I should click OK to verify that the final depth is what I want. (The default final depth is 3mm which is the thickness of the stock and model.)
The only thing I can do is click the "X" to close the popup.
The path seems to be generated correctly, but the pop-up appears at various times even when trying to edit a sketch.
If I change the final depth to 3.2mm to ensure the tool cuts right through the material, and click Apply and OK, the final depth now shows 3.2mm, the pop-up appears, but the path does not go any deeper.
How should I use Pocket Shape to generate a path which goes right through the stock?
Why does it ignore the final depth I have specified?

It is not possible to click OK because there is a spinning blue ring that appears as soon as I move the cursor over the pop-up and I just get a "ding" if I try to click OK.[FIXED] Path PocketShape. Unable to verify final depth.

Re: Path PocketShape. Unable to verify final depth.
Thanks. I don't know how I missed that today. I can remember reading it when posted, but I wasn't trying PocketShape at that stage.RatonLaveur wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2019 10:23 am This problem was already raisedI think he solved it or at least acknoweldged it.
I would still like to know why it won't pocket to the final depth I specify.
