    Default drilling order on nested cabinet sides

    Hello,

    Alphacam 2001, when using dxf files drawn by others, the router likes to drill the way (in the order) the holes were drawn. Seems like whatever I do with toolpaths, it always defaults to how it was drawn. In this case the customer mirrored their dwg resulting in the router jumping side to side to drill an array of holes. It would be much more efficient if it drilled them in a linear fashion. Short of redrawing is there a way to change this?

    Thanks for insight,
    Ben
