CAM350 User Interface LAB

Open CAM350 using the icon on your desktop
or Start > Programs > CAM350 V7.5.

Lab sections will often direct your attention to areas in CAM350 window so the following is a review of the User interface and the names that will be referred to.

The Status Bar consists of the following components:

• The left section (0,0:0,0) is readout of the cursor X-Y position in project units.

• The center area (Select Command) shows the status of any command that may be active.

• The right area consists of 5 “buttons” which toggle their functions as follows:

                      “Z” causes the cursor to snap to an object. In this mode the cursor will snap to 

                             the center of a “Flash” or the end of a “Draw”.

                      “S” enables the cursor to snap to the grid (as set by the Snap pull down selector

                             from the Toolbar pull down).

                     “V” toggles the grid display on and off.

The Panorama Bar shows a “Thumbnail” picture of the viewing area referenced to the design extents in a “Window Pane” that may be moved around in the work area.
