Containment Definition Form
(CAM Level)
Use the Features in Containment Form shown below to select CAM features from the active CAM plan and assign them as a containment definition for the active 2-1/2 Axis, 3 Axis or Rough Milling operations. The features selected will be listed in the Features list of the Containment Definition Form. See Defining Machining Regions for additional information.
The
clearance for 2-1/2 Axis containment surfaces will
only be

This form shows two lists. The left list displays the features
which are available for containment in this Plan. The list on the right
displays the list of features which are already selected for containment
in this operation.
