Try this.
Open a drawing with holes you intend to drill. Start selecting the arc centers you intend to drill. Of course, you can see the toolpath (dashed lines) as you go along. To this point, you know which arcs you have selected. At some point BEFORE you finish selecting all the holes you intend to drill, zoom in or out. You will now find that the toolpath for the holes you previously selected has disappeared! OK, ummm where did I leave off?? Gee, i don't remember. Too many holes. YIKES! I can't begin to tell you the number of times I have done this and ultimately left out a hole or two during the drilling process.
I haven't played with the cutting portion yet.

Mark,
Here's a "Band-Aid" for you.
After you zoom in or out, open your nc editor and highlight your last line of code. It will show you were your last selection was. If you need to you can scroll thru the code and see what has been selected and what has not.
If you select (move to point) in a somewhat orderly fashion, then you can pick up were you left off without to much trouble.
