Chain Preview???

[jeffescott]

So I am not seeing chain preview.....is it because i am a hobby user???

Also used to get tool path preview without selecting okay 

what am i doing wrong?

You have 10 Setups and dozens of toolpaths. Care to give us a bit more info? Perhaps an image of what you're seeing?

for some reason i can not create another file for export....blue circle death over file

Any way the specific example is set up binding top   tool path t1 2d adaptive4

I have never ever seen the chain preview on any of my tool path chain selections.

Obviously doing something wrong.

If we turn the model off, we can see what our approximate machined area is going to be. Is this what you were looking for?

I have that figured out.  Got it and thank you it helps a lot

what i am wondering about is in the drop down box where you select faces or chains. I have seen chain preview when you were showing how to select a chain.  I can’t find that chain preview indication.  Not sure why.  Also when i select the geometry the new toolpath does not replace the old tool path with a new one.  Until i say okay and accept the changes
