New features and functions of 2011 R1 Part6

New Lead In/Out Functions.

Enhanced options to allow Arc Radius and Approach/Retract Angle values to be specified independently for lead-in and lead-out (previously only one Arc Radius and Angle could be applied for both lead-in and lead-out).


 
New Set as Default and Get Defaults options when applying Lead-In/Out moves allows for current settings to be easily saved and recalled.



These defaults are also used when applying automatic Lead In/Out options during the Rough or Finish process.


 
The Project Manager now allows the editing of Lead In/Outs on tool paths from the Operations Tab.



Note that when editing the Lead In/Outs from this command, the single Close button on the Lead-In/Out dialog is replaced with OK, Cancel, and Apply buttons.  

The OK button will apply the current settings to the tool path and close the dialog.  

The Apply button will apply the current settings to the tool path, but leave the dialog open so the settings can be altered until the desired result is achieved.  

Upon clicking the Apply button, the Cancel button is changed to Close.
