Multisurface check surfaces

[walmer]

I have started using multisurface tool paths in X2 and i am unsure if check surfaces are available. May be a dumb question but are they available and where?

 

Thanks all...

after you select the surfaces for the toolpath you can press check the surfaces button and then select check surfaces

Think i may have described wrong tool path. It is an

Advanced Multiaxis - 5-Axis Multi Surface.

 

This seems to only give me the option under the second tab, Surface paths, the 'Drive surfaces' button. The only options I seem to get are for drive surfaces.

 

Thanks for the quick reply but i lead you astray.

Thanks Guys,

I had played with the 'Gauge Check' but was unsure if this is what i should have been using. I made the assumption, don't know why, that this was more for fixture/hardware avoidance. When i tried these earlier i had the tool shooting to places i didn't want but i think i just had my settings wrong.

Thanks all for the help and conformation.

 

Much appreciated,

John
