    Cool, thanks guys! Shaun or Yoram do you guys have any pics of this in action! I tried to simulate it with no results! Im not sure if it is showing the arrows in when using the Gcode plotter or in Mach when I open the file! I just remember seeing it for a split second when Kwok was doing a demonstration for a plug in, cant think of which one!
    Now I have to find out LOL :D Always trying to learn tricks of the trade!! Plus this may be important for later use!! :p

    I referred to the planet-cnc software showing the direction. No pics.

    Thanks Shaun :p I know this is probably trivial but after having some issues with cut direction this would be great if there was some kind of indication of the cut path. This is definately hopeful since I am not the only one with recollection of these arrows :D

    Thanks again guys!

    I said 'I think' but my memory is not the best anymore (not that it ever was) so I checked it to make sure I know what I'm talking about and the pocket tool does not make arrows. It was the arrows (error?) in my mind that I saw. :D :D :D

    I posted that small bit of code, previously, that selects the outer loops. I've posted a plugin for it: viewtopic.php?f=103&t=2388
