The Project Boundary Collapse Project Boundary Collapse Cycle command icon cycle is similar to the Project Toolpath cycle projecting a 2D Areaclear cycle. However, Project Boundary Collapse achieves this in a single step and also supports containment boundaries.

An example of the cycle is shown here:

  1. Select the Project Boundary Collapse Project Boundary Collapse Cycle command icon cycle.

  2. Complete the parameters for the cycle and click on OK.

  3. Digitise the surfaces on which to project the toolpath.

  4. Digitise a Line, Arc, Continuous or a Curve to act as a profile. This must be a closed profile.

  5. Digitise any containment boundary entities to form a closed boundary and then perform a Finish.

The cycle now generates the toolpath.
