Cut fixture

Were is the command to cut the fixture?
Normally vericut only colors a collision with tool and fixture red, but is there a command to actually remove the fixture material when cutting into it?

Thanks,

Re: Cut fixture

There was in v5, but it is removed for v6.

Re: Cut fixture

in 6.2, you will have an option "OK to cut fixture" with a value for "Maximum Milling Depth".

It will be in the component attributes of the fixture.

The advantage of this method is that you can separate the fixture back plate from the clamps and bolts. You can allow a certain depth of cut in the fixture back plate but any contact with the clamps will generate an error.
