ok to toggle single step on and off while turning??

Is it acceptable practice to toggle the single step button in middle of a cut?
i have been taking single step cuts until I am happy that all is OK and then I toggle
out of single step while the machine is cutting for the NC to finish the job on auto.
It occurred to me that this may cause some sort of a conflict??
best regards
fred

I toggle the single step when testing a new program and have had no problems.
Also, once "stepped through" I do a dry run for one more test before introducing coolant and stock.

Thanks for your answers-- I have done the following with no problems as yet
click "cycle" click single step"
start cycle
the program cycles through on step at a time when i see it looks ok then click the single steo button and it
changes to auto and continues the while program
seems that nothing goes wrong
regards fred

sorry about the spelling -
"click the single step button"
" the whole program"
