If you have a few pockets on your part and they will all be utilizing the same pocket setup, is it possible to select them all and use the same pocket setup, tool dia, depth etc. etc.? please reply as this will save a whole heck lot of time. Thanks

i think i figured it out!!! but... you can only input about 4 contour's at a time.
example: in the area pocket option window where you can select your contour you would like to assign path, instead of clicking the down arrow and selecting the contour, you can type in the contour's of your choice.
Con_28, Con_14, Con_9, Con_3
something to that affect, if there is a better/easier/faster way please do tell, until then if you need me I will be out making some chip's, PEACE!

at the cad stage use your group tab i.e. put all similar depth contours in the same group
then in the cam stage in the options tab select machine all contours in same group ......awalla 27 or so 12mm deep contours machined
