Description

This tool generates tool-paths from Path Objects along the object edges at the depth of the selected object. All edges associated with the selection will be included. Edges may be selected from by selecting the entire object from the 3D view or document tree, or by selecting individual edges, or by Faces from the 3D view.

Tool-paths are uncompensated for tool radius. There is no Tool controller associated with the tool-paths generated, though Feed rate may be applied to the Property.Data.Feed Rate and Property.Data.Feed Rate Vertical inputs.
