This function can be used to program holes on a pitch circle with a
defined radius.
The tool can approach the next position along a linear or circular path.
(for XY selection only)
(please see "Full circle" for detailed description).
You can use the XA selection if use of the rotary axis on the machine
is required.
The Y axis is not traversed, i.e. the Y axis must first be positioned
centrally over the cylinder.

If you position the cursor on the "Full/pitch circle" field, you can toggle
between the two options using the "Alternat." softkey.
