OR better yet- work directly off of the solid and not need a curve or geometry.


Actually Shawn, to me that is one of the beauties of FC.

FC doesn't really care if it's a curve or geometry, the toolpath will be based on it regardless.

If you want to draw otherwise unrelated geometry to the solid ( for manufacturing purposes ) so be it.

 

At the end of the day tho, the curves are usually derived from the solid, so in essence it is directly off the solid.

 

To the OP, yes, that would be a nice addition.

Though I usually leave the curves shown ( erase or turn off the original geometry ), in some busy models it pays to have them

turned off.

The way I work with complex ( busy ) models though is I create separate layers for each operation and it's related curves.

That way I can turn on or off only what's relevant.
