Manufacturing : Feed Rates question...

[Bailar]

I can change feed rates like engage, rapid, approach etc.
But How to change feed rate in cutting area?
For example I need feed rate change at some points of cutting area :

I tried to do it with "Tool Path"->"Edit" but there is no diapason selection there I can change feed rate only one selected arc.

Other than creating diferent operations I don't think there is any way to do this in NX.

I had some trochoidal motion that was overembedding on the first pass and I was able to use "tool path" -> "edit".
Not sure what you mean by "diapason selection".

Raysapp,

Thanks for the answer. Take a look at the attached picture to find out what I mean by "diapason selection".

Now I understand. You're right, I had the same issue with the trochoidal motion; I just changed each segment of operation individually, kind of a pain, but at least I got what I wanted. I don't understand why you can't do it to a group selection of segments. I'm also not crazy about doing it outside tool path parameters. I lock it just so I don't re-gen accidentally.
