Simulation

The Simulation item is displayed in the Project Tree when you simulate a toolpath.

When selected, tools are displayed below the splitter bar that enable you to simulate your calculated toolpaths, import a relief file as a simulation, export a simulation as a relief file, create a relief layer from a simulation, reset the simulation, delete the simulation, and control how the simulation is displayed:

Button

Function

Click the Simulate All Toolpaths button to simulate all the toolpaths in the Project Tree.

Click the Load Simulation button to load a simulation from a Carveco Relief (.rlf) file.
The availability of this button is license dependent.

Click the Save Simulation button to save your simulation.
The availability of this button is license dependent.

Click the Create Relief Layer button to save the simulation as a relief layer.
The availability of this button is license dependent.

Click the Reset Simulation button to reset a completed simulation.

Click the Delete Simulation button to delete a completed simulation.

Click the Delete Waste Material button to delete the surplus material after a simulation is completed.

Disable dynamic level-of-detail — Select this option to set simulation rendering at high-detail.

Depth colour — Select this option to shade areas below the simulation block surface that have been machined away in the primary colour.

Material — Select the material in which you want to render the simulation.
