    Question Sloping or Profiled cut shape

    Hello, I'm new user with Alphacam and CAD in general.

    I want to create an profile cut around my shape, I try to do exactly the same thing as in this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdsYN57MtG4

    But don't understand why, the profile is straight at each time. If it can helps, Alphacam tell me this sentence after validate the cut shape :
    Geometries with tools on centre will be be treated as soft boundaries.

    Moreover, I'm not sure to set the material in a right way..

    If Alphacam tell You - after validate the cut shape .. Geometries with tools on centre will be be treated as soft boundaries.
    - Then You need to set Your Tooldirections to outside / Inside.. If it´s on center - how shouls it know where You want your Toolpath??

    Did you watch?
    Do you have a problem with that?
    What do you not understand?
    Do you need me to explain something to you?
