PDS:Set Piece Start Point

Use this command to define which grading point will become the start point. Defining the first grading point and the order of all the other grading points is particularly important when creating (and applying) a rule created from all the pieces' contour points. Show the Contour point numbers through the View & Selection.
When using the Set Half Tool, the first point is automatically set to be the last selected point of the symmetric line. When the piece is 'halved', you can no longer change the start point manually.
