Warning: The default styles are very important for CamBam to function correctly and should notīe renamed or removed. The default style is the style with an empty name in the style library. In the event that no style is defined at any of these levels, the default style will be used for the source of the Default values. If the Part does not have a defined Style, the Style set against the Machining object will be used. If the Style property is left blank for a machining operation, the Style specified in the containing Part object will be used. Machine operation, Part and Machining CAM stylesĬAM Styles can be specified at the Part level and in the top level Machining folder. It is not necessary to also provide the dependent style definitions, as all the required information will be preserved within the file. In this way, if a drawing is transferred to another computer or sent to another person, The cache conflict alert was added to prevent inadvertent changes to a drawing resulting from changing a style or The next time the file is opened, changed default properties will once This remains in effect until the file is closed. If Use same action for all conflicts is checked, the same response will be used whenever a new conflict is detected.

Machining operation and Style properties can have multiple states, indicated by the icon to the right of the property name.ĭefault - The value of the property will be taken from the CAM style associated with the machining operation.ĭefault property values will be displayed in grey italics and will show the default value that will be used.Īuto - Indicates the property value is to be calculated internally by CamBam, often based on other settings.įor example if the Target Depth property is set to Auto, the depth will be calculated to cut the full thickness of the stock object. Note: Styles replace a system of Templates that were used in previous versions of CamBamĪnd provided a similar purpose. If no style is selected, a default style will be selected automatically. In this way, any changes to a CAM style will immediately affect all operations that refer to it. The value of machining operation properties that are marked as Default, will be taken from the style associated with the operation. This refers to a style definition, stored in a system library, which is available to all drawings. CAM Styles are a way of grouping machining operation parameters into reusable objects to help simplify common machining tasks.Įach machining operation has a Style property.
