# Contour selection easy and convenient

From woodWOP 8.0 onwards, one click is enough to select a contour

Fast, convenient contour selection

This new operating aid makes operation faster and more convenient. Often, selecting just one point is enough to select the contour. The other point is set automatically. You don't have to select the start and end points separately.

If the contour is closed, the selected contour point is used as the start and end point. In an open contour, if the selected point is the beginning of the contour, the end of the contour is adopted as the other point and vice versa. If the selected point is in the middle, nothing is carried over.

## Advantage of contour selection:

- Faster, more comfortable operation
