 The Entities tool controls which parts and points are displayed in the assembly. Click the '''Entities''' button [[File:entities.png]] to open up this menu. Each row will represent straight part, bent part, and PickPoint. To hide a certain feature, click in the green box to remove the '''X'''. To have all features shown, click '''Display All''' button.

 <h3>Bend Mode</h3>
 This option controls the type of bend location for the very next bend-point selecting during the creation of a bent part. In other words, this setting will only affect the part being built. After selecting a bend-point, this setting will revert back to APEX, meaning you will need to select the right setting for each bend-point in the part (unless the points are APEX).
 The type selected under this menu indicates what the bend-point represents:
 '''Apex:''' The bend-point is the apex of the bend, which is the intersection point of the two legs on either side of the bend.
-'''Tangent (Start):''' The bend-point is at the very start of the bend; where the straight leg meets the bend. (no bent material will be included in the measurements)
+'''Tangent (Start):''' The bend-point is at the very start of the bend; where the straight leg meets the bend. (no bent material will be included in the measurement)
-'''Tangent (End):''' The bend-point is at the very end of the bend; where the bend meets the straight leg.
+'''Tangent (End):''' The bend-point is at the very end of the bend; where the bend meets the straight leg. (no bent material will be included in the measurement)
 '''Perpendicular (Start):''' The bend-point is at the perpendicular point on the first leg (start side). See image below. This location can also be measured as the start of the bend plus the radius; along the first leg.

 <h3>Bend Mode</h3>
-This option controls what kind of bend location will be for future bent parts in the assembly (In other words, this setting will not affect current parts).

+'''Direction -> Any Point:''' This option requires the selection of TWO bend-points for a single bend. The first bend-point represents a location on the first leg of the bend (before the bend). This point can be located anywhere on the leg. The second point represents a location on the bend. This point can be located anywhere on the bend.

 <h3>Cut Settings</h3>
 If the '''Outside Diameter Only''' option is checked, the software will not display the inside diameter cut line for each cut.
-If '''Distance to Perp of Bend''' is checked, the cut wrapper's red line will instead display the distance to the tangent of the nearest bend combined with the outside radius of the bend.
+If the '''Hide Completed Features''' option is checked, completed features from the new cut will be hidden in the design.
-If the '''Hide Completed Features''' option is checked prior to selecting a new cut, you will not be able to select any tubes that have a previous cut assigned to them.
+If the '''Ignore Tube Ends''' option is checked, all new cuts will ignore the excess tubing leftover from all other cuts.
-If the '''Ignore Tube Ends''' option is checked, the cutting calculations will ignore the end of the cross tubes. (i.e. As if the cross tube continued on forever.)
+If '''Mitered Cut''' is checked, all new cuts will be calculated as straight mitered cuts. If you are using a hole saw to cut your tubes leave Mitered Cut unchecked.
-If '''Mitered Cut''' is checked, all cuts will be calculated as straight mitered cuts. If you are using a hole saw to cut your tubes leave Mitered Cut unchecked.
+If the '''Add Slot & Tab''' checkbox is checked, all new cuts will contain a tab on the intended cut tube and a slot on the adjoining tube. ''Adding a value into the value field to the right will rotate the tab around the tube by a degree between 0-360.''
