After programming a part, I always make a workshop document to show how to do the work. In some specific cases I have to display the tool path on the document. But sometimes, there is more than one view. Is it possible to choose on which view to display the toolpath ?
In fact, it displays by default the tool path on the first view created on the drawing.
For example, on the view below I would like to show the tool path on the bottom view. But I created the bottom view after the top view. For the moment as a work around, I can delete the first view, display the toolpath on the bottom view, then create again the top view.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Instead of deleting the view, you can erase it (Layout > Display > Erase view) and after Show Paths (which should show path in the oldest, visible view), use RMB > Resume View. Saves you some recreation work, similar to Martin's suggestion.
The official solution is the following (but it might not be faster than the workarounds, if you need to show many tool paths):
I have updated the existing article CS171114 accordingly.
Thanks Martin, Thanks Gunter,
Both solutions you gave works fine. I'll now be able to show tool paths where ever I want !
I'll see which solution is the most effective. One thing is sure, the official solution is not the one !!
