PathPilot Quick Tip | G Code Path Simulation

PathPilot has some tricks up its sleeves. Simplifying your life is always at the top of the list with the control developers. One of the ways PathPilot helps is by letting the user view the programs cutting tool paths.
If you open the View Options tab next to the g-code window, then you have control of which tool paths are displayed. You can view them all, or select individual tool paths. If you aren't sure how a program is going to perform, you can simply set your z- height several inches above the workpiece and observe the g-code simulation in the window. Once you are assured the program is running right, then you can begin to cut. This can be reassuring if you have expensive materials or tooling. This feature is pretty unique in the CNC control world, and only a handful of CNC manufacturers offer this level of detail.

Learn something new every day. I didn’t know you could select/deselect tools to see the tool paths

Can you explain tool comp?? There's no information out there and the control keeps getting gouging error. Pearson or Saunders made a video about it but it's too basic
