Graphic shift/enlarge
After a tool path has been drawn on the tool path drawing screen, it is
possible to shift the center of drawing and enlarge part of the drawing.
The shift and enlarge operations cannot be performed while a tool path
is being drawn.
Graphic shift
The center of drawing can be shifted. In addition, the scale factor can
be changed. Thus, the drawing can be enlarged/reduced, with any
position as the center.
- Procedure
(1) Press the [SHIFT] soft key.
A red cursor is displayed at the center of the screen, and the soft
key display changes.
(2) Use the [↑][↓][→][←] soft keys to move the red cursor to a new
center of drawing.
(3) To change the scale factor, set the relative scale factor.
Key in a value within the range of 0.01 to 100 and press the
[INPUT] soft key. The entered value is displayed in the
"Relative" field located in the center right portion of the screen.
(4) Press the [SET END] soft key to end the procedure.
Then, press the [ERASE] soft key to make the graphic shift
settings effective. Drawing is now possible with the new settings.
- Relative scale factor
The relative scale factor is relative to the scale factor currently set for
the appropriate graphic parameter.
For example, if a tool path that has been drawn is to be redrawn twice
as large, the relative scale factor must be set to 2.00.
