    Create Stock Around Imported Solids

    I'm looking for a quick way to create stock around imported solids. In Mastercam I do this by adding a bounding box. What is the best way to do this in Esprit? I don't see a way to create a bounding box in Esprit.

    Open your help file and search for Simulation Parameters - Solids Settings
    I am assuming your creating stock for a milling operation. If you want a quick reference create a rectangle. (search help for rectangle)
    Then you can use the rectangle corners to define the stock in Simulation Parameters.

    Another way is to import a stock solid.
