3D view with Vcarve pro

Post by DerUhrmacher »

Hi,

How can I simulate the result of a wrapped toolpath with Vcarve?
Does I need to upgrade to Aspire?

Regards,
Andreas

The wrap preview isn't supported in VCarve Pro. You can see the toolpaths wrapped around a wireframe

But for the full preview you would need Aspire:

How can I do this? I'm not finding anything in VCarve Pro 7.0 :(
