Add 'Tube lasercut' to 'split' command

Add 'Tube lasercut' to 'split' command

It would be awsome to have a Laser cut option in the split tool.

 

In the '3D Model' tab, section 'Modify', feature 'Split' there is a command called 'Trim Solid'. I would love for this to have an extra option to go along with it. This should be the option to "mark" the split as an Laser Cut feature for fixed head laser cutters. So the kept body will be left with the properly modeled edge. I know there are state of the art tube lasers that are able to move there head to be able to cut almost anything, but my experience is that there are still many machines that can't. To make a correct model now takes a lot of splitting and Thicken/Offset feature to make a singel cut.

 

Having an option to mark "Laser cut" to the 'Trim Solid' command, would shorten the feature tree, and most important save me a lot of time.

@Anonymous, can you post a sample picture of what the Split command does now versus what you would like it to do?
