Tool Path Rounding Issue was created by Project_Hopeless
I have a spoil board re-surface program I created in Fusion360 with "straight line transition" enabled. When I run the program in a LinuxxCNC simulator I still get rounding, not straight line.
The program is fairly simple.
My machine is a DIY so I have relatively slow accel/decel values.
Is there somthing in G code I can edit to reduce the rounding?
The program is fairly simple.

G61 will get it.
Look at G64 to tune the system to what you need.

Now is there an in between command? I read and found a G62 corner override but LinuxCNC does not recognize it. Is there a adjustment to the rounding that is modal?

G61 is exact path
G64 is Path Control Mode with Optional Tolerance it is adjustable
I don't see a G62.

G64 P.005 would be a decent in-between depending on cutter size and speed.
G64 is used to maintain constant speed so if you have low acceleration then it will round more corners. The P will allow it to behave similar but only round to .005" (or whatever your machine unit is).
G61 is exact path mode. Just beware of how much tolerance and smoothing you have in your fusion tool operation.
G64 with no P is default at start up. You can add G61 or G64 Pxxx to your ini file start up codes or you can modify every ngc code fusion spits out or you can change the post processor.

Michael I have a problem with what you mentioned here of the Fusion 360 smoothing, when I use this option in the axis when trying to open a g code I have problem of arcs at the beginning and at the end, and when I don't use this option axis opens the code without problems, maybe you know what is happening?

Not sure what you are referring to. Are we talking about the settings in fusion 360 or a problem with a line of g code?

When I use the smoothing function in Fusion 360 it creates linear and arcs to smooth the splines with the pp it creates a G3, then when I want to open the G code in linuxcnc it gives me a different arc problem in the end and the start error. Now when I don't use that Smoothing function the Plasmac interpreter which is the one I use works fine.

Smoothing in fusion will linearize the arc. If you want a pure arc turn off smoothing. And decrease the tolerance in the fusion tool path to what ever your machine can tolerate.
Are you referring to the lead in and lead out of the tool path? Fusion creates a lead in/out on most of it's tool paths that is a ramping arc usually in movements of 10% of cutter diameter of I remember correctly. These can be turned off on the final tab of the tool paths.
Also if you want to eliminate linuxcnc from all types of path blending then add G61 to the beginning of your g code file. This is exact oath following.
G64 is blending ng and on low acceleration machines it will blend a lot from the lead in to the actual arc you want.
G64 Px.xxx will blend with the limited amount. So between two paths P.005 will not go more than .005" away from the intersection of those two paths.
