Face Selection for CAM.

Face Selection for CAM.

Add the ability to select faces for operations in the CAM environment.

 

It works very wll in HSMWorks. It can also be faster than edge selection when edges are not all planer.  MasterCAM also has a nice implementation of it for some ideas.

This seems to make sense to have this functionality. Providing the contour automatically addresses islands. An example is you select a face that is actually a surface outline of a fancy letter A. It should consider the entire surface selected as the root boundary and drive all contours the same direction for ease of chaning cut direction with the correct cutter comp.
