Panel

The Panel Operation is the basic dimensional reference for a Macro. It defines the Length, Width and Thickness references that will be used when developing the Macro.

Length - X dimension
Width - Y dimension
Thickness - Z dimension
Corner Radius - radius of filleted corners
Units - Inch or Metric

All dimensions are defined from the World Coordinate position of 0, 0, 0. The Z dimension is defined in the negative Z direction even though the dimension is defined as a positive number. The start definition coordinate is 0, 0, 0 and the opposite corner of the Panel would have the coordinate of 18, 24, -0.75.

Ignore Panel on Execute - The Panel definition can be used as just a reference and not to be actually executed by selecting this option.
