This function allows the operator to add a lower cut beneath a selected cut on the selected piece.
The interface for this function is similar to the following image:

Parameters
Distance from cut | The distance from the selected cut to the lower-cut working. |
Depth cutting | This is the plunge depth into the material. |
Start Distance | The inward distance at which the working is created relative to the start of the cut. |
End Distance | The inward distance at which the working is created relative to the end of the cut. |
Start Distance and End Distance can be enabled or disabled using the buttons to the right of the value.
When disabled, Parametrix does not take them into account; when enabled, the program calculates the displacement.
Start Distance and End Distance
These parameters can be enabled or disabled using the buttons to the right of the value. When they are grey (off), Parametrix does not take them into account; when they are green (on - as shown), the program calculates the displacement.

Executing the working
The working can be applied by pressing the button to the left of the appropriate cut in the polygon list.
A red icon with an 'X' indicates that the working cannot be applied to the desired cut.
Based on the set working parameters, a lower cut is inserted parallel to the selected piece cut.

The following image shows a drip system working created using the same parameters as in the previous example.

In both examples, the working has been applied to the lower linear cut.
It has also been added to the 'Added Workings' list, located in the lower-left section of the 'Edit Piece' panel.
