'Operation' Input Tab
The ‘Operation’ input tab contains a Geometry View-like structure, which it gets from one of two sources:
A representation of the Geometry View, using Setup names as they appear in CAM Assist - this is based on the operation that you right-clicked to open the Cutting Parameters Explorer (see the screenshot to the right).
Operation pop-up - the operation you selected within the Operation pop-up (see below).
Operation pop-up
On clicking the ‘Operation’ input tab, a pop-up covers the Display Area (see below).
The pop-up contains a representation of the operation that was used to open the Cutting Parameters Explorer: in the ‘Operation’ pop-up you can change that operation to another.
How to change the selected operation
Within the Operation pop-up, take the following steps:
Click on one of the operations
The content of the Operation input tab changes immediately to the selected operation.
Click on the button in the top-right of the pop-up.
The selected operation is automatically saved.
The Operation pop-up closes.

Some of the operations listed in the operation pop-up are greyed out (and cannot be selected) because the operation:
Is not yet supported by the Cutting Parameters Explorer.
Is not suitable for the selected tool.
