Welcome to the forum @Bernie32203. Here we wait while the Langmuir Forum Gods work on the magic potion that will allow you to post a file!
Just a guess: it might not be in the xy plane. Had that happen to me recently.

Did you run the Simulation in the Manufacturing tab?
Yes i did and they dont show up in the cut path, they are in the same xy plane
How big is that? Your kerf setting looks way too big. That is why those passes are discarded. The kerf won’t fit inside the cut opening.

okay will check what the kerf is what is your recomndation.
thank you so much.
Your kerf setting will depend your torch, nozzle size, metal thickness, etc. it is the amount of metal that is cut away by the torch. A good starting point is .06", but it is probably actually less than that. Mine is about .048" with a 1mm nozzle.
i think i have it set at .55, from what i seen the space needs to be bigger than 110 right is that correct.
i think i might have answered my own question, i might have it wrong it should be to .050 not .55. i will try .048 i have a 1mm nozzle also.

Yeah. That decimal place makes a big difference.
that could be why it looked so wide on the cut simulation right, and not including those cuts. and just so in know if i set it to .048 then the space in between needs to be .096 or larger right.
Not necessarily. I’ve gotten away with internal cuts that were just larger than the kerf. (Note - Cut quality may suffer when you get under kerf x2.)
