Re: How to assign color inside the toolpath
You have to create a dummy pocket toolpath to remove the material inside the circle and set the colour on that toolpath.

The “dummy” toolpath, for display purposes, that Adrian mentioned could have a depth set to 0.01mm (or 0.001 inches). This is so that the colour of the cut will register but the circle won’t noticebly change thickness.
