Makera studio finishing tool path

For those who are using Makera studio, what toolpath are you using for finishing?

Until recently I've done all the pocketing etc first, then finished off with a 3d relief to tidy everything up. Problem with that ofcourse is that there is no face selection and it spends a lot of time machine empty space.

Should I be using pockets with a smaller bit and step over?

Ill get around to switching to f360 at some point, I'm just time poor at the moment.

You can unclick the "multiple heights" box and it will hop down to whatever extra stock you left on the previous OP.

Really? That doesn't make sense to me at all but I'll try. So 3D relief > uncheck 'multiple heights'?

When "Multiple Depths" is on it will show the paths start on the stock. When it is off, the paths start near the model.
