Split Profile Type Applies the pre-loaded profile you select from the drop-down list to part edges along dividers. The default value is None. Depending on the profile type selected, the following 4 parameters may be available for specifying how the profile is applied.
Edge Match Specifies which of the following 3 ways the profiles on either side of a divider gap will be oriented:
  • Complementary
  • Mirrored
  • Rotated
  • Note: These examples use the Angled Step division profile type, which is shipped with the software.
Profile Along Flip Applicable to all 3 Edge Match options, this parameter flips the profiles 180 degrees horizontally. For example, with this parameter selected, the Complementary profiles shown above would look like this:
Profile Across Flip Applicable to the complementary and rotated Edge Match options, this parameter flips the profiles 180 degrees vertically. For example, with this parameter selected, the Complementary profiles shown above would look like this:
Profile Offset Specifies the distance that the profile is offset from the divider.
