Toolpath1.png

Graphic area, shows the reconstructions that are nested, you can choose which parts will be calculated. [1]:All parts will have a Green indicator if they are not already calculated, and are ready to mill

  • "Click" on a reconstruction to select only this part for milling, other parts will have a yellow indication
  • "click the same part again" to deselect all reconstructions
  • using "SHIFT/click" to disable / enable any part for milling

Blank information is displayed [2]:

Select Machine

Choose the CNC Machine that you will use, if you have several machines...... [3]:


Design Selection

Define the reconstruction to mill and the type [4]:

  • Choose a single reconstruction to mill or All
  • Enable / Disable reconstructions for milling
