No....

Wireframe only

... and the color of the wireframe is important ...

_______________________________________________

·        Make sure that the compensation point of the insert (the virtual sharp corner) is located at the origin (0,0,0).

·        If the tool profile geometry is located on a level in the current Mastercam session, the insert and holder geometry must be the only geometry on that level.

·        The geometry must consist of two closed boundaries: one for the insert and one for the holder. There must only be those two contours.

·        Insert and holder lines should be different colors. Recommended colors are #14 (insert up color), #138 (insert down color), and #116 for the holder.

·        Custom lathe tool geometry cannot be created with splines. Only arcs and lines are supported.

·        Custom 3D lathe tools are not supported.
