      <p class="para_topic">Line End Points allows you to define a Fixed Tool Axis by defining two points, selecting an existing line, or defining a point and a vector. The vector is parallel to the line and points in the direction of the second end point or the selected end of the line. The Tool Axis remains parallel to this vector as it moves along the Tool Path.</p>
