Squashing

[bsander1027]

Hi so the company I work for has used MC v 8.0 for 15 years. Now we have x9. We have always used a chook function known as squashing. When I press alt+c in x9 I don't see this function at all. I have found what I believe to be alternatives by xform> project then edit> delete> delete duplicates, but I feel these are not the best alternatives. I'm wondering if squashing has just been renamed or just doesn't exist and I'm stuck with the alternatives. I've asked my reseller and cnc software reps, but no one can give me a full answer. If anyone has any suggestions please tell me, thank you very much.

Why are you squashing? If your looking to squash geometry to a z level for chaining a profile...  Create/ Silhouette Boundary
