      <p class="para_topic">The steepness of the part at any given point is defined by the angle between the tool axis and the normal of the face. The steep area is the area where the steepness of the part is greater than the specified Steep Angle. When Steep Angle is toggled ON, only areas of the part with a steepness greater than or equal to the specified Steep Angle are cut. When Steep Angle is toggled OFF, the part (as defined by the part geometry and any limiting cut area geometry) is cut.</p>
