To support multi-layer blanks, you can define color schemes and assign them to a blank type.
The color schemes can be assigned a tooth color, which is taken into account by the filter when suggesting the blank.
When a part is nested in a raw part with an assigned color scheme, the colors of the scheme are projected onto the part.
Thus, the color gradient of the part can be adjusted by changing its vertical position.
If you press the shift key while moving an active part, the blank will be hidden in a small area around the part
to make the color gradient readily visible.

Name
|
Freely selectable name for the color scheme.

Unit Layer height
|
Selection option for defining the layer heights in % or in mm with respect to a virtual blank height
|
|
Input in %
|
Layer height above % - Define specification for subsequent blank height.
|
|
Input in mm
|
Define layer height via mm - specification in relation to a virtual blank height.
e.g. Virtual blank height 10 mm with 4 layers of 2.5 mm each will later become 4 layers of 4 mm each on a 16 mm blank, 4 layers of 5 mm each on a 20 mm blank, etc.
|
|
Virtual blank height
|
Virtual blank height for referencing a definition of the layer heights in mm.
|
|
|
Add layer.
|
|
|
Delete layer.
|
|
|
Move layer upwards.
|
|
|
Move layer down.
|
If the Shift key is pressed while the object is being moved, a small area around the object is hidden,
so that the color gradient becomes optimally visible.
