Edit Toolpath - Extend Cut Move

In this Topic Show

 

Introduction

This topic explains the Parameters available when the Extend Cut Move Command Mode, which allows you to extend the toolpath tangentially by a specified distance, is used. As explained in the Edit Toolpath Dialog topic, most of the Edit Toolpath dialog remains the same, no matter which Command Mode is being used. It is the Parameters of the Extend Cut Move Command Mode this topic focuses on, although, the Command Mode group, Selected Toolpath Elements group and the Animation group can still be revisited in this topic by expanding the drop down hot spots of the same name.

 

To work through an example utilizing this function, see the Edit Toolpath Example - Extend Cut Move.
