Small box at top right of each tool path check box

Post by Geeman »

Greetings. I'm running Aspire 8.5 and have these small boxes appearing to the top right of the checkbox on my tool path list. They are about 25% of the size of the usual tool path check box. I have searched within the reference manual and the online forum and cannot find out what these boxes are. I don't recall ever seeing them on my TP's before. I could attach a pix but hopefully this is a simple issue. Any ideas? :o

It might be the toolpath color indicator. Does it look similar to this image? (I highlighted items of interest in yellow)

That's it! I have never had a reason to use this feature but decided to turned the coloring on late last night to see what it would look like not realizing it would have this effect. Many thanks!!
