Mark Inner and Outer Lines
UpdatedJune 29, 2023

This tool is used to manually mark polylines as inner or outer polylines, overriding MetaCAM’s default assignment.
The marking of polylines as inner or outer polylines affects the way they are tooled depending on the various options you have set in the Punch CAM settings. The illustration below shows how the polyline on the left will be tooled if it’s marked as an outer polyline (top) and as an inner polyline (bottom), this has changed due to different wirejoints being needed for outer polylines compared to inner polylines.
