Form Specific Parameters
Cut Options
SCAN_TYPE—Define how the system scans the form instances:
TYPE_1 (the default)—Increments the y coordinate and goes back and forth in the x direction.
TYPE_SPIRAL—Clockwise, starts from the instance nearest to the coordinate system.
TYPE_ONE_DIR—Increments the x coordinate and decrements the y.
The scan algorithm applies to the whole workpiece. It does not matter if the form instances belong to the same reference part or to different ones.
