Entries on new Volume Rough Sequence

$

With the old "classic" Volume sequence it is possible to set the parameter ROUGH_OPTION to ROUGH_AND_PROF and obtain a helical entry for the roughing portion of the sequence by setting options such as HELICAL_DIAMETER & RAMP_ANGLE.  Then when the profile portion of this same sequence begins LEAD_IN would create a nice arc to start the profile portion of the sequence .


Is it possible to obtain this with the new Volume Rough Sequence?

 

It seems that setting CUT_ENTRY_EXT HELIX gives the helical interpolation into the volume for the roughing, but then the profile plunges straight in.  Setting CUT_ENTRY_EXT LEAD_IN allows the profile portion to run correctly but you loose the helical interpolation on the roughing portion.  Any ideas how to get both like we can with "classic" Volume?
