Difference between placing just a guide and placing guide + shoe in model.

What is the difference between placing just a guide as compared it to accompanying with a shoe in the model?

  • Greetings Raziff, 

    Open the support dialog and press help:

    Here is a chart that shows you the details of each support type available in AutoPIPE, A shoe is akin to a v-stop, therefore compare a V-stop support to a Guide support.
