CONTPRON Activate tabular contour preparation (11 columns)
INTERSEC Calculate the intersection of two contour elements.
(Only for tables created by CONTPRON).
ISPOINTS Calculate the possible intersections of two contour elements.
(Only for tables created by CONTPRON).

14.2 14.2 Contour preparation (CONTPRON)
Function
The blocks executed after CONTPRON describe the contour to be prepared. The blocks are
not processed but are filed in the contour table. Each contour element corresponds to one
row in the two-dimensional array of the contour table. The number of relief cuts is returned.
Programming
CONTPRON (TABNAME, MACH, NN, MODE)
Deactivate contour preparations and at the same time switch back to the normal execution
mode:
