ated and you are in the editor.
Press the "Contour turning" softkey.
Press the "New contour" softkey.
The start and end point are specified for the contour line.
The start point and the direction are selected on a selected element. Beginning at the start
point, the automatic contour line takes all subsequent elements of a contour until there are
no following elements or intersections with other elements.
Note
If a contour includes more elements than can be processed, you will be offered the option of
transferring the contour to the program as pure
G code.
This contour then can no longer be edited in the editor.
