Kevin,
You cannot view your toolpaths in shaded view in PW1 or PW2. This is only available in Insignia-Full or ArtCAM Pro as a simulation feature.
If I am mistaken, I would really like to know how you can shade in PW.
Thanks!

Brady,
It is possible in PW1, but not PW2. Seems Delcam discovered their error and removed it in v2. That's the story I heard from SB. If only I could find the notes from the SB training course. Somebody here has got to know the trick.

Frank at ShopBot gave me the answer. Here it is:
"The simulation that they let slip
through was caught in 1.02. It only works in 1.01."
Create your toolpath
Left click on the toolpath to get the "tilde" symbol (must be in 2D mode)
Right click and select "Simulate Toolpath"

Thanks for sharing the info, Kevin.
After using PW2...I never want to go back to v1 !!!
