Merge Contours
Define the behavior for merging open contours when importing from other drawing programs.
| Import |
Merge contours on import |
| Paste |
Merge contours when pasted |
| Tolerance |
Maximum separation between contour endpoints that will still be merged |
Auto Cleanup
Control if short segments are automatically deleted when imported or pasted.
| Import |
Delete short segments when contours are imported |
| Paste |
Delete short segments when contours are pasted from the clipboard |
| Tolerance |
Maximum segment length to be deleted |
Undo Operations Limit
Controls the number of operations that can be undone by the Undo command.
| Unlimited | All operations since the last save can be undone |
| Limited | Only the specified number of actions can be undone |
Save
Specify an auto save time interval
| Auto Save | Enables automatic saving functionality |
| Time Interval | The time interval between automatic saves |
Toolpath
| Scaling of toolpath groups | Allow toolpath groups to be scaled when checked. When a toolpath group is scaled the toolpaths will automatically be recalculated using the original strategy parameters. If unchecked, toolpath groups cannot be resized. |
| Clip toolpaths to plate | Output toolpaths will not extend beyond plate boundaries when checked |
| Horizontal cutting | Allow toolpaths to be rotated out of the horizontal X-Y plane when checked. This option is only applicable if using a machine that is capable of cutting toolpaths not in the X-Y plane. |
Misc
| Bump Increment | The distance a selected object is moved when the arrow key is pressed by default. Pressing Shift + Arrow Key will vary the bump increment based on the zoom level so when zoomed in close, objects move smaller increments. |
| Click Increment | The amount that values change when adjustment arrows are clicked in dialogue boxes. |
| Snap Threshold | The distance in pixels at which the snaps take effect and the cursor automatically moves to the snapped geometry |
