Saving a contour
Operating notes:
The control also transfers two workpiece-blank
definitions (BLK FORM) to the contour program. The
first definition contains the dimensions of the entire
CAD file. The second one, which is the active one,
contains only the selected contour elements, so that
an optimized size of the workpiece blank results.
The control only saves elements that have been
selected (blue elements), which means that they have
been given a check mark in the List View window.
To save a selected contour:
Select the Save icon
The control prompts you to select the target
directory, a file name, and the file type.
Enter this information
Confirm your input
The control saves the contour program.
Alternative: Copy the selected contour elements
to the clipboard
Ensure that the unit of measure used in the NC program
matches with that used in the CAD-Viewer. Elements
that have been copied from the CAD-Viewer to the
clipboard do not contain any information about the unit of
measure.
Deselecting the contour
To deselect the selected contour elements:
Select the Clear function to deselect all elements
Alternative: Select individual elements by clicking
them with the left mouse button while holding the
CTRL key
