VCarving and 2.5D Toolpaths
The VCarving and 2.5D toolpaths section of the Toolpath Operations icons can be found on the Toolpaths tab, underneath the Toolpath list. These strategies all make use of the tool's geometry to form a number of intricate 3D shapes very efficiently. Because the range of 3D shapes that can be formed are determined by the tool's own shape, you cannot use these strategies to cut any arbitrary 3D shape. Therefore, to distinguish them from true 3D strategies they are often referred to as 2.5D strategies.
