      <p class="para_division">Retract is the initial move away from the part at the end of a cut.</p>
      <p class="para_division">Retract method brings up a dialog to specify which method you want to use in making the retract.</p>
      <p class="para_division">You may choose one of the following:</p>

      <p class="para_division">Vector allows you to specify a direction vector by bringing up a text field box to enter X and Y vector values.</p>
      <p class="para_division">Angle/Distance allows you to specify an absolute angle and a distance to retract to by bringing up a text field box to enter the appropriate values.</p>
      <p class="para_division">To A Point allows you to specify a point to retract to. This brings up the point subfunction dialog.</p>
      <p class="para_division">Circular allows you to retract in a circular manner from the part. This brings up a text field box that permits you to enter the retract angle and the retract radius.</p>
      <div class="title_division">Custom Retract Feed</div>
      <p class="para_division">Custom Retract Feed allows you to specify a feedrate that only applies to the retract move. Enter the feedrate value just below this option.</p>
