Project tool path to a model

Post by dschultz »

I am feeling a bit silly, I don't see the how and where to project tool path to a model/solid. Which tutorial do I need? Or does anyone have the steps spelled out?

1) Make sure you have "Show Advanced Toolpath Options" checked in the the toolpath window

2) Look near the bottom of the toolpath window...you will see the option for "Project toolpath onto 3D model"
