# 5.4 Toolpaths Plan now gives you greater control over how toolpaths are generated for each individual polygon. You can adjust individual polygon trace spacing, toolpath order, start and stop points, and much more. This added flexibility allows for more precise control over your print process. ### Toolpath Generation Toolpaths can be generated for all polygons by selecting the artwork layer (or multiple artwork layers), or for individual polygons by selecting them in the artwork tree.

### Toolpath Editing #### Delete Toolpaths To delete toolpaths, click on the toolpath in the print area or the properties panel, then press the **delete** key or click the trash icon next to the highlighted toolpath in the properties panel. You can delete multiple toolpaths at once by **ctrl**-clicking or using click-and-drag to select a group of toolpaths in the print area.

#### Delete Toolpath Segments You can also delete segments of a toolpath to split it into two. To do this, click on a toolpath segment in the print area and press the **delete** key.

#### **Merge or Extend Toolpath Starts and Stops** To merge two toolpaths, click on a toolpath's start or stop in the print area and drag it until it overlaps with another toolpath's start or stop. You can also extend toolpaths by dragging the start or stop to your desired location.

#### Reorder toolpaths You can also control the order in which toolpaths within a polygon are printed. To do this, select the polygon in the features panel and open the toolpaths tree in the properties panel. Then, click and drag the toolpaths to reorder them. The toolpath at the top of the list will be printed first, while the last toolpath in the list will be printed last.

#### Reverse Toolpath Starts and Stops To reverse a toolpath's start and stop points, select the toolpath and click the reverse button next to it in the Properties Panel. You can also group select multiple toolpaths and click the "**Reverse All**" button to reverse the start and stop points for all selected toolpaths.
