Several years back, I noticed a thread that suggested the idea of being able to select a point where madCAM would begin a toolpath operation.
Was this ever implemented or is there another way to do this?
Best regards,
Bruce

Can't recall it was made, but I like the idea though.
Bcavender,
"Select Start Points"
This is where you select it in 3/4/5 versions see pic below.
I have not used it.
Joakim should be able to tell you how it works.

I defined a point, selected it with the command you suggested (thinking it might work like creating a region) and then immediately generated a toolpath for that pocket, but that point was somehow not associated with the next created tool path.
Maybe I am missing some other step or it's not fully implemented yet. The HELP section in my package doesn't show that command yet.
I think I am running the latest version. Haven't seen an update popup in a while.

I am sending the question to Joakim. Will report back what I find.
Tnx!
