Electrode base and/or CSYS modifications are allowed only during modification step (not accessible during the electrode creation).

When you will fill the table, you can go from a cell to another one by pressing TAB.

If the healing succeed, it creates an operation line the symbolic tree. The remove operation is named with the same name than its electrode.

If the healing succeed, it creates a representation of the part to machine. You can change the representation from the tree, to recover the status of the part without the healing.
