Command 'Show preprocessed path'

Symbol:

Function: This command activates and deactivates the display of the CNC path with preprocessing.

Call: Menu bar: CNC .

Requirement: A CNC path is open in the editor.

If the display is active, then the path is displayed with preprocessing and the original path is displayed in light gray in the background.

The preprocessing is configured in the CNC settings dialog box (Path preprocessing tab). The preprocessing configured there is displayed. Then, you can simulate the effect of the different function blocks (in series) on the preprocessing.

Note

The command does not have any effect on code generation.

Even if an SMC_OutQueue file structure is generated when compiling the CNC program, the command does not have any effect on the contents of the file. The preprocessing is always taken into consideration when compiling.
