Copy toolpath
Copy toolpath
Now that Aspire has Double Sided capability, is there an option to copy toolpaths to the other side. I have no problem copying vectors, but I do not see an option for toolpaths?

Re: Copy toolpath
Move the vectors to the other side, swap to view the other side, recalculate the toolpaths

Re: Copy toolpath
Gary,
Please teach me, I tried creating a vector on front side and creating a toolpath for it. I then moved the vector to the bottom side. No toolpaths were visible in the bottom side toolpath tray.
The only way I've been able to move a toolpath is using the Save and Load toolpath option.
What am I missing?

Re: Copy toolpath
I tried it multiple times but still have had no luck. The only toolpath to recalculate is the original on side one. Recalculating this does not create a toolpath for the bottom side vectors.

Re: Copy toolpath
John...
I stand corrected. The toolpath does recalculate to the correct location, but does NOT move the toolpath to the other side with the vector. I do not believe this would be the expected behavior, but I will find out what the powers that be have to say about this.
I would say for now, that you should delete any toolpaths associated to vectors that are moved to the other side of the material. Once the vectors are moved, then generate a new toolpath.

Re: Copy toolpath
Thanks Gary,
Thought I was missing an easy way to move toolpaths. For now I'll continue to us Save/Load toolpaths. Would be a nice feature for a new release if you the option to move the toolpath associated with the vectors being moved.
