Engraving, how do I do this?

I have a part that needs a partial round over in two places. The photo shows one of those round overs.
Using the engraving function to form a path around a perimeter, but not a full path is wanted.

When I draw the path in Estlcam 12.065 I start outside of the area to be machined, come onto the line were needed, follow the path around to where I need to finish, draw an small extension away from the line at the finish. When I click on the completed tick box, an automatic close line is drawn that I don’t want. How can I stop this happening?

I found the answer.
I must select an engraving tool, not a profiling tool.
By changing the tool to an engraving tool the engraving path works as it should do.
