In designer, is it possible to have multiple carve regions on top of another? I want to have one carve region that cuts to .250 then one inside of it that is .350. So a square within a square. Currently if I have any overlapping carve regions they won't show the other depth. It will only show one or the other.

Thanks!!

Try the "merge" additive tool

This thread may provide some useful tips... It used circles, but the same techniques should apply to square regions as well.

Great question.

I was getting ready to ask a simular question. One thing i have learned so far is on the left side of your screen on your tangent line list keep track of what bit you have assigned to what line. I have done this on a couple of different projects i have designed.

Thanks for posting this link. I will check it out as well.
