Options/Controls

Grid

  • On/Off - enable this option to display the grid. The cursor will not snap to the displayed grid unless the Object Snap setting has been set to the grid.
  • Size: X:Y (mil) - enter a X:Y sizes value in this field. The X, Y sizes displays the grid. You may use independent X and Y values (i.e. X=100.0, Y=50.0).

Object Snap

  • Object Snap - enable this option to ensure that placed objects pull the cursor into position based on cursor proximity to the selected object snap point (hotspot).

Modes

  • Ortho - enable this option and the Ortho Mode will be active. In this mode, you can Draw, Edit, or Measure at 90 Degree increments on the CAM document.
  • Blips - enable this option, and the Blips mode is used as a tool to help you see the location that is selected by the mouse. So for each left-click a reference '+' symbol appears.  These reference symbols are temporary and will disappear when the CAM document is refreshed.  

Units

  • English - enable this option to use Imperial measure units in Inches (In).
  • Metric - enable this option to use metric units in millimetres (mm).

Arc Direction

  • Clockwise - enable this option to define the direction of arcs clockwise. Regardless of the direction setting, the direction of arcs can be changed individually as they are drawn.
  • C - Clockwise - enable this option to define the direction of arcs counter-clockwise. Regardless of the direction setting, the direction of arcs can be changed individually as they are drawn.
