Anchor imported vectors

Post by ger.wat »

I imported a dxf that was created with Solidworks, deleted all unnecessary lines, drew cutting vectors over the imported lines and created tool paths w/t results. HOWEVER somewhere along the way one line got moved .037".

QUESTION, how do I anchor imported lines so they can't be moved?

You can move vectors that you don't want to move to a new or other layer and then lock that layer by right clicking on the layer name in the layer tab or top layer menu and choosing Lock.
