Form

Mechanics

The form is the path along which a rectangular basic outline is moved in order to shape the bent copper rail. Generally, only rectangular outlines are shaped along a form; other cross-section forms cannot be assigned. A form is created in the outline editor and saved under the file type Form copper (*.fp1); only lines and polylines are permitted here. The form drawing must create a continuous set of lines; it must not contain any branch or double junction.
