Project panel
Use the Project function to project selected entities using one of the following methods:
- Depth: Projects selected entities to a specified z depth in the current construction plane.
- Plane: Projects selected entities in various positions in 3D space and squashes them into a flat, 2D plane. Mastercam converts NURBS splines if they are not parallel to the construction plane.
- Surfaces/Solids: Projects curves onto surfaces, meshes, or solids using the specified tolerance. The default value is set from the Maximum surface deviation in the configuration.
When performing a transform function, Mastercam creates a temporary group from the originals (red) and a result (purple) from the transformed entities. These system groups appear in the Groups dialog box. However, they stay in effect only until you use Clear Colors on the Home tab or perform another transform function.
