The Cad-only version will not backplot G-code to a drawing.
Find, Replace, and renumber are enabled, as are the Macros.

Vector will backplot g-code feed and rapid moves, including 3D arcs. It may
have a problem with arcs that are greater than 180 degrees. It does recognize
G17-18 & 19.It can draw lines to indicate the drilled points in cycles by
replacing the cycle with G01. Then Draw points at the end of each line.

It will also backplot Heidenhein code.
