Edit > Restrictions > Normal 
This tool enables you to add a restriction of Normal type to the female profile of the currently selected stripper area/region, provided this tool is marked as available in the current System Settings.
Normal restrictions are placed as either a lug or as a corner, depending on the point selected for the restriction. The shape of the restriction is generally rectangular, although the side angles can be defined to be something other than 0deg, and fillets of a given radius applied at the corners, in the System Settings.
Edit bar controls
Interactive 
If this option is checked, then a preview of the restriction and any dynamic stripping component placed relative to it is shown at the cursor as you move the mouse around the drawing before you click.
The option should be unchecked if you experience any performance issues, particularly on low specification machines.
Material 
If the current system settings define different Materials, then from the pulldown list select the material required; Impact will automatically attempt to select the correct material for you if the material variables for the layer are set.
Place DSC
If this option is checked, then a dynamic stripping component is placed relative to the restriction.
DSC
If the Place DSC option has been checked, then from the pulldown list select the dynamic stripping component setting if you wish to override the default as defined in the current system settings.
Component
If the Place DSC option has been checked, and there is more than one component in the dynamic stripping component’s male component library, then from the pulldown list select the default component that should be used by the dynamic component setting if you wish to override the default as defined in the library.
Nick
Switch this option on to access the drop down list of available symbols (as defined in Options > Database Operation > Symbols > Nick Symbol Group). This allows you to select a different nick symbol for the restriction.
Inside For Outside 
If the current stripper area/region is an external/outside area, and if the restriction has different default settings for insides and outsides in the system settings, then check this option to temporarily override the use of outside settings for this restriction and use insides instead. This is useful if dealing with perimeter profiles containing areas that should be stripped as if they were internal.
Width
This option allows you to explicitly override the width of the restriction as defined in the system settings.
Auto Size
If this option is checked, then the depth of the restriction is automatically chosen to match that of parallel offsets as defined in the system settings.
Depth
If the Auto Size option is not checked, this option allows you to explicitly override the depth of the restriction as defined in the system settings.
Flipped
If the Place DSC option has been checked, and the default component is of Claw type, then check this option if you wish to place the left hand component, or leave it unchecked if you wish to place the right hand component.
Reversed
If the Place DSC option has been checked, and the default component is of Claw type, then check this option if you wish to reverse the component.
Side Rotate
If the Place DSC option has been checked, and the default component is of Claw, Male Knife or Fork type, then check this option if you wish the component to be automatically rotated to the side.
Side Offset 
If the Side Rotate option has been checked, this allows you to change the From side offset value that is used.
Auto Infer
If this option is checked, then the tool will check for the same configuration of entities and blocks as the picked entity in other parts of the stripper area/region, and automatically place restrictions here too.
These inferences will be linked so that editing one later will affect all of the inferences.
Infer Horizontal
If this option is checked, then the tool will automatically try to place an additional restriction at a position directly opposite (following a horizontal line which is displayed in the cursor) that chosen.
These inferences will be linked so that editing one later will affect all of the inferences.
Infer Angle 
If the Infer Horizontal option has not been checked, then checking this option will still make the tool automatically try to place additional restriction at a position directly opposite that chosen, but using a line that is at the given angle and not necessarily horizontal (which is displayed in the cursor).
These inferences will be linked so that editing one later will affect all of the inferences.
Infer Perpendicular
If this option is checked, then the tool will automatically try to place an additional restriction at a position directly opposite that chosen, following a line which is perpendicular to the picked entity.
These inferences will be linked so that editing one later will affect all of the inferences.
System Settings 
You can make a temporary override to the System Settings currently being used by the Stripper Creator by changing the values shown in the Stripper System Settings form.
Area 
You can make a temporary override to the area helper settings currently being used by the Stripper Creator by changing the values shown in the Area Helper form. A defined area can then be displayed on the cursor to help gauge the size of any restrictions added.
Angled 
If this option is checked, any editing of a selected component using the drag handles will allow changes to the angle of the component. Otherwise, the angle of the component remains fixed.
How to use the tool
Pick a point on the profile of the selected stripper area/region to add a new restriction.
Existing components and restrictions within a selected region will be marked with drag handles of different shapes. These can be edited in the same way as the Select 
tool, without the need to explicitly start that tool.
Edit > Restrictions > Paired Normal 
This tool enables you to add a pair of restrictions of Normal type to the female profile of the currently selected stripper area/region, provided this tool is marked as available in the current System Settings. By adding a pair, dynamic stripping components may be shared across both; this is useful where you wish to place two restrictions with one component between them. This shared component is added as a Free restriction.
Normal restrictions are placed as either a lug or as a corner, depending on the point selected for the restriction. The shape of the restriction is generally rectangular, although the side angles can be defined to be something other than 0deg, and fillets of a given radius applied at the corners, in the System Settings.

How to use the tool
Pick a point on the profile of the selected stripper area/region to add a new restriction.
Existing components and restrictions within a selected region will be marked with drag handles of different shapes. These can be edited in the same way as the Select 
tool, without the need to explicitly start that tool.
Edit > Restrictions > Paired Simple
This tool enables you to add a pair of restrictions of Simple type to the female profile of the currently selected stripper area/region, provided this tool is marked as available in the current System Settings. By adding a pair, dynamic stripping components may be shared across both; this is useful where you wish to place two restrictions with one component between them. This shared component is added as a Free restriction.
Simple restrictions are always placed in the same way, even if the point selected for the restriction is close to or at an intersection.
The shape of the restriction is generally rectangular, although the side angles can be defined to be something other than 0deg, and fillets of a given radius applied at the corners, in the System Settings.

You can make a temporary override to the System settings currently being used by the Stripper Creator by changing the values shown in the Stripper System Settings form.
Area 
You can make a temporary override to the area helper settings currently being used by the Stripper Creator by changing the values shown in the Area Helper form. A defined area can then be displayed on the cursor to help gauge the size of any restrictions added.
Angled 
If this option is checked, any editing of a selected component using the drag handles will allow changes to the angle of the component. Otherwise, the angle of the component remains fixed.
How to use the tool
Pick the breaking entity that intersects the female profile, to add a new breaker restriction.
Existing components and restrictions within a selected region will be marked with drag handles of different shapes. These can be edited in the same way as the Select 
tool, without the need to explicitly start that tool.
Edit > Restrictions > Trim Waste
This tool enables you to add a restriction of Trim Waste type to the female profile of the currently selected stripper area/region, provided it is an external/outside region, and provided this tool is marked as available in the current System Settings.
Trim Waste restrictions are breakers, and combine a pair of side restrictions of Simple type in the female with a symbol for insertion of a trim waste component in the female.
Edit bar controls
Interactive 
If this option is checked, then a preview of the restriction and any dynamic stripping component placed relative to it is shown at the cursor as you move the mouse around the drawing before you click.
The option should be unchecked if you experience any performance issues, particularly on low specification machines.
Material 
If the current system settings define different Materials, then from the pulldown list select the material required; Impact will automatically attempt to select the correct material for you if the material variables for the layer are set.
DSC
From the pulldown list select the dynamic stripping component setting if you wish to override the default as defined in the current system settings.
Component
If there is more than one component in the dynamic stripping component’s male component library, then from the pulldown list select the default component that should be used by the dynamic component setting if you wish to override the default as defined in the library.
Auto Selection
If this option is checked, the female symbol is automatically selected based on the trim distance and the ranges specified in the current system settings. Otherwise, it must be manually selected.
Female Symbols
If the auto selection option is not checked, then from the pulldown list select the female symbol required.
Side Restriction
From the pulldown list, select the side restriction required, explicitly overriding the default defined in the system settings; choose either a pair of Simple restrictions the neighbour distance away from the breaker or <None>.
Auto Infer
If this option is checked, then the tool will check for the same configuration of entities and blocks as the picked entity in other parts of the stripper area/region, and automatically place restrictions here too.
These inferences will be linked so that editing one later will affect all of the inferences.
Auto Sense
With this option switched on the component will be placed on the point nearest the profile automatically; otherwise, it will use the end point of the clicked entity.
System Settings 
You can make a temporary override to the System settings currently being used by the Stripper Creator by changing the values shown in the Stripper System Settings form.
