I'd like to mill a slot from one end to the other, plunge at the far end and return and repeat to depth. As far as I can see the program now mills the slot, lifts the tool to the safe retract height and does a rapid back to the beginning of the slot and starts again.
Is there a way to achieve this action?

Re: milling a slot with no no tool lift
In your cut operation go to the 'Cut path' tab and turn on 'Reverse open paths'. That should do the trick.
