Is there a glossary for all the terms that are being created?
You better use the excel file to see what those parameters do.
The lengths of short, medium and long paths varies in function of the parameters you use.
Medium length is the main length, on the medium length Cubeitmod calculate with the following parameters how to increase the xy speed when the path become shorter : solid%, Exp, VShift, HShift.
If the path is very short the xy speed becomes very high and the cubex cant move at such speed, with MaxSpeed you can set the limit for the speed increase. To see how long is the longest short path you can see into the CubeItMod's end of process message the PivotLength or into the Excel file if you set SolidShort% to 100 the flat line at the beginning of the curb shows you all the "Short" lengths for the parameters you're using.
For the Short lengths CubeItmod cant increase the speed, the speed is maintained to MaxSpeed but the RPM are reduced, this RPM reduction is set by SolidShort%.
Long paths are not always used, if you see that with your parameters you have too much extrusion when the paths are maybe 60mm or more, you can use HighLimit to stop the increase of RPM/XYSpeed ratio, to do this HighLimit must be smaller than VShift, using the Excel file you see when HighLimit starts to push down the curb, where the curb is pushed down by HighLimit is considerate Longh path,
