      <p class="para_topic">Unlike Cavity Milling which orders cut traces by cut region, Zlevel Milling orders cut traces by shape. You may profile shapes by Depth First in which case each shape (island, for example) is completely profiled before beginning to profile the next shape, or you may profile shapes by Level First in which case all shapes are profiled at a particular level before cutting each shape at the next level.</p>
