<p>The Contour tool creates a simple external contour cut of complex 3D <a href="Part_Module.html" title="Part Module">Part</a>-based objects. The entire Job Model serves as the input for the Operation--regardless of whether any Body Geometry is selected when the Contour command is invoked. A Start point can be enabled from the Operation editor, using a location defined in the Property view->Start Points.
|
|
</p><p>The Path Contour object is made to be part of a <a href="Path_Job.html" title="Path Job">Path Job</a>.
