Cutting path type at outer corner
For closed inner contours without a microjoint, you can select here whether a lead-in path should be cut at an outer corner. If a lead-in path is to be cut, the shape of the lead-in path is selected.
Cutting path type at element centre
For closed inner contours without a microjoint, you can select here whether a lead-in path should be cut at the centre of the element. If a lead-in path is to be cut, the shape of the lead-in path is selected.
Macro name
Here, the macro for the lead-in path is selected, if macro is selected as the cutting path type. Alternatively, the macro can be selected graphically via the .. button.
