Strategy - Choose between:
2D - Drives the tool along planar entities such as lines, arcs and continuous entities.
3D - Drives the tool along curves and 3D continuous entities.
Feedrate - Specifies the rate of movement in the workplane.
Plunge Feed - Specifies the rate of movement in the direction of the tool axis.
Speed - Specifies the tool spindle speed.
Link Control - If slotting more than one entity, choose the method of producing link moves:
Shortest - Produces a 3D linear feed move to the start of the next slot.
Retract - The tool rapids vertically to the Clearance height, rapids in the workplane to the start of the next slot and feeds down to Depth.
