All parameters defined in the program header, with the exception of
the unit of measurement, can be changed at any location in the
program.
The settings in the program header are modal, i.e. they remain active
until they are changed.
Define a new blank, e.g. in the sequential control program, if you want
to change the visible cutout during simulation.
This is useful for the work offset, coordinate transformation, cylinder
peripheral surface transformation and swiveling functions. First
program the functions listed above and then define a new blank.
