On the left side of the dialog box the current cutting situation is graphically displayed. The active cutting outline of the boundary object can be seen in section (active cutting class black, all other cutting classes gray). The joining component of the active cutting class is displayed in magenta. The green line corresponds to the cutting line.
Dialog box section Options
Class Displays the current cutting class. The cutting class cannot be changed at this point. This is only possible in the higher-level dialog box.
Mode Defines the cutting mode for the active component.
Notch This option is currently not available.
Shadow Activates the angular shadow cutting method. This option is only available for profiled cuttings.
Angular shadow
Angular shadow: left on, right off
First cut orthogonal Causes the first cut to be carried orthogonally (perpendicular to the joining component). Otherwise the first cut is carried out perpendicular to the boundary object.
Unify class Unifies boundary objects with identical cutting classes so that they are used like a part for the cutting.
Unify group Unifies all assemblies of the boundary object so that they are used like a part for the cutting.
Dialog box section Distances
Lists the distances for each side of the boundary object. The side belonging to the marked value is displayed in red in the preview. To shorten the joining bar on one side of the boundary object, you can mark the value in the list and modify the distance in the input field.
Equally mirrored Accepts the entered distance for the opposite side of the boundary object.
All equal Accepts the entered distance for all sides of the boundary object.
