Adopting the standard Windows workflow was a major shift in version 7, but 7.2 perfected it with "Dockable Windows."
From the “Milling” tab, select “Contour.” Import the DXF for the decorative top edge. Using the new “Spline Smoothing” feature, WoodWOP 7.2 automatically densifies the toolpath to ensure a smooth finish without jerky axis movements.

Open WoodWOP 7.2 and click “New Job” from the ribbon. Select your machine model (e.g., CENTATEQ N-510). The software automatically loads the machine’s kinematics, tool library, and axis limits.
Use the “Linear Pattern” tool. Enter a distance of 32mm between holes (using system hole drilling). With the new “Array Modifier” in 7.2, you can tell the software to stop drilling 100mm from the top and bottom of the panel automatically—no manual math required. Adopting the standard Windows workflow was a major
WoodWOP has always had 3D viewing capabilities, but 7.2 upgraded the rendering engine to provide real-time collision detection and better material visualization.
Key Visual Upgrades:
Previous versions relied on basic wireframe or shaded block removal. WoodWOP 7.2 introduces the Ghost Engine—a real-time, high-fidelity material removal simulation.
Don't write the same boring cycle for a hinge cup every day. WoodWOP 7.2 allows nested macros with local variables. Save your standard operations as .wml files and call them via %MACRO "HINGE_BLUM" X=45 Y=100. Select your machine model (e
