Do you have to extract the geometry from an imported file to machine it?
Do you have to extract the geometry from an imported file to machine it?
Using the Profiler is a generally cleaner solution. However, profiler doesn't always solve every task. Sometimes extracting geometry is necessary, especially if you need to tweak geometry.
The reason I was asking is I had a pocket with an angle leading into it on one end and had problems generating a good program. It kept wanting to cut into the sides. I was wondering if I would have extracted the geometry if it would have worked.
