      <p class="para_topic">Milling features that have walls can be machined using the Cavity Mill operation. They do not have to be prismatic features. In addition, they can be open or closed, and blind or cut-out. </p>
      <p class="para_topic">The Cavity Mill operation depends on the functionality of the Localized Cavity Mill project. Each milling feature in a feature group is treated as localized cavities during the tool path generation.</p>
      <p class="para_topic">The cut-level can be specified or can be created automatically. The automatic cut-level is created from the milling features in a geometry group. If the cut-level is specified in a template, this cut-level is ignored and automatic cut-level is used on a new operation.</p>
      <p class="para_topic">For detailed information refer to the following:</p>
