Graphics On/Off

Graphics On and Graphics Off program blocks allow you hide selected operations in the graphics display. For example, setting a Graphics Off block as block 3 in a part program and Graphics On as block 10 will hide blocks 4-9 when the part is viewed using Solid or Toolpath graphics.

To insert a Graphics On or Graphics Off block:

  1. From the Input screen, select the Part Programming softkey or icon.

  2. Select the Insert Block Before softkey.

  3. From the New Block screen, select the Miscellaneous softkey.

  4. Select the Graphics On/Graphics Off softkey.

All blocks that are hidden by this operation are still cut when the program is run.
