Adding a Tapered Ball Nose Bit

Thanx Seth, I sort of get what you mean entering it as an endmill using the tip width, but isn’t the tip width the same as the radius? The bit for example is R0.75mm x 3.175mm x 15mm (in inches is R0.029in)
I have entered it as a straight cut, just giving the tip size as 0.29, but I also entered it as a V-Bit with a 6.4° angle, which should allow for the taper, shouldn’t it?
I suppose all I can do is experiment?
