This is not meant as a CAM replacement, it is just for basic shapes for a quick cut.Haven't anybody considering using NativeCAM? It has all the features that are shown in this video and many more. Plus a nice user interface.
It is also very easy to add new shapes as ngc subs, or you can use external executables to generate gcode.

neither is NativeCAM. It just does the same thing as yours scripts but it has a nice user interface.

It is a little crude but it does seem to work.Could you array an existing part? Eg. draw 1, cut 20

Phill, you are just amazing really!
So you just need to be able to save the array so it can be pulled up whenever. Even better if you could display the outline in your shape library. A lot of shops would have a small library of parts that they cut all the time I'm sure.
Sorry for continuing to push your boundaries but I could not stand to see you being bored!

On the right hand side of Extras tab there are ten buttons that are custom user buttons 10~19. They work the same as the existing buttons i.e. set the name and the code in the .ini file and in addition I have added a load command so you can directly load a program from a button. It would probably be possible to shape these buttons the same as the shape buttons and allow a custom graphic on the button.

There already is a "save gcode as" in axis gui, i think.
So whatever is opened should be possible to save.
Will check that after i catch some ZZZZZ
