Editor

GCode is the mother language of any CNC machine, with Editor you can modify it and see what your changes will produce.

Let's have an example: after loading your part program, move to Editor Tab:

Here we have a nice dog profile, and in the left our CAM generates Gcode gently grouped by bCNC into different sections. We can see the HEADER and two BLOCKS in this example. Each of these has a check Box in the title that allow us to disable some particular region if we don't need it. More custom blocks can be added with menu Edit-->Insert Block [Ctrl-B]

Let's select the head of our dog with Select tool [S] :

As you notice the selected Gcode program is also highlighted in the Text editor. That's too cool, isn't it?

Ok, now use the Move Object [M] to drag the selection with the mouse:

Our dog now looks like a Giraffe! And it was so easy. This is only the tip of iceberg, let's try some special command, navigate to Tools-->Mirror-->Horizontal from the top menu. (or use the Command Line : MIRROR HORIZONTAL (or MIR H for friends))

The result shows how simply some common operation can be accomplished without the use of external CAM software.

You can insert new line int the Gcode program selecting the line and using the menu: Edit-->Insert Line [Ctrl-Enter] as in picture below:

then edit the new line and enjoy the result in main window:

The editor supports Undo [Ctrl-Z] and Redo [Ctrl-Y] so feel free to try to write and modify Gcode files. Save them to new file or overwrite original ones.
