Shape Wizard
ShapeWizard
, a proprietary graphical part editor, provides a user-friendly, graphical method of
editing part programs.
ShapeWizard
allows a user to graphically view not only the segment that is being edited, but also
any changes that are made, when they happen. EIA RS-274D codes can be inserted directly as
ASCII text into a part program or, alternatively, segments can be created by specifying phrases in the
user's native language as a step-by-step process. EIA RS-274D codes need not be known.
ShapeWizard
is accessed from the Shape Library menu.
