Projection onto support faces

In that case, further to first calculation of coordinates and normal, the tool path is projected on the support faces. This is particularly useful for slot mill and radiused mill tool when the milling direction is climb or conventional.

In that case, after the calculation, the tool path is not projected. Then this tool path does not respect necessarily the part and the support faces notably with slot mill and radiused mill tool (when the milling direction is climb or conventional).
