fading
I have been attempting to fade a component (Aspire 8.5) and when I choose the component and check "fade" and "set", and the click on the component, the entire project changes axis as I move the curser, rather than showing a line defining the direction of fade. Any suggestions (while waiting to upgra...

Nesting and view
i am attempting my 1st nesting work and am cutting fairly small (3"X5") pieces with tabs. When I preview the toolpath, the view shows sporadic places around the piece cutting through the work and is pixilated due to the enlargement, I suppose. I have increased the view from standard to 7X, but the v...

importing PhotoVCarve
I have both PhotoVCarve and Aspire, and have been wondering if there is an easy way to use the toolpaths from PVC without resetting the starting point (If I have a 3X3 inch PVC project and want to place it in a 10X12 inch Aspire project near the right side, I stop Aspire and reset the origin and ope...

Clear area inside/outside
I've decide to make some frames and thought it would be quicker to use a larger bit and just offset cut the frame separately from the scene. However, when I start with a frame and design a scene inside, I have been unable to separate the two... (draw a square around the scene, choose it and the scen...

Using 3D view for designing
I seem to remember (or was it imagine :mrgreen: ) a way to use the more detailed view of the 3D model to use some of the drawing tools. I am attempting to use a smaller .125 bit in several specific areas of a model (facial areas) instead of a .250 bit but the height map in the 2D view is too vague t...

Re: Happy Valentines Day
I posted it before I cut it out, due to the closeness of Valentines Day. I've cut it and and have changed it slightly. The bottom of the frame has been shortened and the cutout of the heart makes a perfect base. I just made vertical cuts at the narrowest part of the heart and it fits perfectly on th...

measuring curves
I am needing to form curved slots with various lengths and have been unable to find a simple way to do this. Is there a way to draw a line and edit it with beziers and still retain the original length?
Thanks much
