X7 Backplot.. quick verify?

[djstedman]

In X6 and before I would often use the quick verify part of backplot (the part that showed the colored in 2D path the tool would follow) to determine how much engagement a tool would have on the first pass of a multi pass path..

 

Is that in the X7 backplot somewhere? or do I need to run it in verify?

[djstedman]

bump.. anyone? any thoughts?

Djstedman - It's not there yet in X7's release, you'll have to use classic backplot for now. I would expect it to be in by MU1 or so. That was one of three things missing from it that kept it from replacing classic backplot for MU1.

Ok.. good to know.. at least I can stop looking for an option screen I wont ever find..

[Aaron Eberhard]

Well, EVER is a bit harsh...

i am using old backplot to see cutting time to optimize toolpath quite often. Can you add this option somewhere into main window, not in new verify/backplot pop up window?

And one off topic :-)

What is purpose of allowing holder to cut material in default setting in new verify? I heard that sound once in my life and hope i dont hear it again :-) (i already edited xml to uncheck it as default)
