is there anyway to get rid of the toolpath lines after you compute a toolpath.
without deleting function that you have chosen... this is very irritating to delete the function and retype in all the information allover again just to do another pathand see what your selecting for geometry..

If you click the plus sign on that feature you will see it say "Rough" and "Finish". If you right click either of those and choose "Blank", they will be hidden. You can also change the color of each individual pass.

ok i will try that.
when i open cam tree the, the cam part tree is minimized and the turning stock and edm stock are expanded.
is there any way to keep the cam part expanded and keep the turning stock and edm stock minimized.
or even get rid of the lathe and edm stocks off the tree for now. i dont have a need for them.

Unblank it. Repeat step 1.

I dont think this is in it yet. I have seen it mentioned before though.

BTW: Mine opens up as all three collapsed. Make sure you are on the latest build of 1276.

Go to Help menu-About BobCad and see if it says Build 1276. If not then:

run this as an updtae to the existing install. It is not a full install. It's an update.
