OK, I found a "radial pocket" that I specify an inside diameter, so I can leave the "island". But then I've got to do another area - using "X (or Y) pocket wizards. So I can get it done, but I don't see how I can do it using the dxf in D2NC.

So emergency is over, but I'd still like to learn what I apparently am missing:o))
