Is there any way to compare your setup for a toolpath from one project to another. I'm doing small iterations, some of which are working as expected, and some are not. It would be hugely helpful if I could compare the file that isn't working with the known good file and see what I've screwed up.
If it doesn't exist, it would be a huge help as a learning tool, particularly since you undu setups step by step and revert back to a spot that worked.
Perfect example, I was adjusting a number of settings on a job, added a bogus boundary option horked it. Since I'd changed a handful of things I had a hard time pinpointing what caused it. I ended up opening another save of my template and doing a visual compare. This is...not so user friendly. I can't have the clearing operation menu open in two documents at the same time. Or two in the same project. So time consuming to switch back and fourth to compare. My next workaround is probably going to be screenshots. Seems convoluted.
Your only option at the moment would be to save one op as a template then use Create from template to import into your document then use compare and edit on the 2 ops.
