By default, PartMaker orders the processes in the Process Table according to the sequence in which you programmed the part. It starts by creating processes for all the part features in the first Face window you created, before moving onto the next Face window you created and so on.
If the default order of processes does not reflect the sequence in which you want the part to be machined, you can reorder processes as follows:
- Click to select the process(es) that you want to move to a new location in the Process Table, for example:
To select a group of consecutive processes, click the first process in the group hold down the Shift key, and then click the last process in the group.
To select non-consecutive processes, hold down the Ctrl key, and then click each process you want to select.
- Holding down the left mouse button, drag the selected process(es) to the new location. An arrow cursor is displayed to indicate the new location, for example:
- When the arrow cursor is in the correct location, release the left mouse button to move the process(es):
Use Ctrl+Z if you drop process(es) in the wrong location and want to undo this action.
