Milling auto
The Milling auto function automatically generates a milling operation with disposal (if available) for all contours based on the settings made.
The technology and the tools used depend on the chosen material and thickness. Text placeholders for special forms (_SO_...) and macros (_MA_. ..) are also evaluated.
