CAM Simulation - camera follow tool

[pawelzwronek]

IDEA: Camera view tracking/follow the tool while simulation in cam is playing.

BENEFIT: I can track more precisely and faster how tool is milling stock so I can spot suspicious moves/cuts.

IMPLEMENTATION: Checkbox 'Follow tool' in window 'Simulate', tab 'Display', section 'Tool'.

OPTIONAL IDEA:While following camera could also rotate so view(camera) vector would be perpendicular to tool path( but user could also alter this angle with mouse SHIFT+CMB).

I worked with machine simulation in other CAM systems and if you worked with a table/table machine  the tool was not moving but the part. I can tell you, this does not give you a better view, just makes you stomach hurt 🙂
