how to slow mouse sensitivity in vcarve pro. Is at slowest in imac computer preferences
in drawing/distort object, i have two straight lines with text between. choosing 'between two curves' i get ok on bottom line but 'top edge curve invalid'. Same with curved lines.
Also, text comes out starting with it with it laying on its right side and i have to rotate. how to start with text right side up?
thanks in advance

Can't help on the mouse, don't use a imac.
On the distort you have to convert the text to curves first.
On the text orientation all fonts that start with "@" or orientated 90°

You may also have to set mouse sensitivity with Windows configuration panel.
On the Mac side, I use MagicPrefs (freeware) which allows fine tuning of the mouse.
If you are using a magic mouse, it's not the best tool for CAD-CAM. You may be more confortable with a basic (but good quality) standard USB mouse. I always have a Logitech 3 buttons + scroll wheel mouse connected to the Mac which I use from time to time.

Re: newbe questions
Make sure that you select the text first and then the two lines/curves. It will work with normal text not converted to curves but the text has to be the first part of the selection.
