Curve follow

#1
Hi,

can anyone tell me how can I do the curve follow when I intend to cut out a pocket in a part ?

I can easily select the curve that is visible in the CAD, but in order to achieve that in real life my cutter will need to be more inwards. If my cutter diameter is 8 mm I want to be 8 mm inwards from the curve that I select.

How do I do this ?

Thank you,

Attila

In the curve follow project settings, you can in "Edit path settings" to add a inward offset to the path.

Hi Olivier,

I found that one, and it works for part of the curve, but I would like to get an offset to the whole of the path. If you see the image I attached hopefully you understand what I mean.

Thank you,

Attila
