Personally I never used it so I don't miss it. I draw straight lines between major points and then select everything in node edit and press S.

Have you tried the freehand tool as that can do curves as well?

That is definitely brighter than what I am getting. I would have no complaints with that. I have not changed the Windows setting for a long time and they are definitely the same for V11.5 as V12. I am just taking all the default setting that are in the options menu except the ones that migrated fro...

It's combined with the Draw Line-Polyline tool.

Click an hold the left mouse button while drawing a line to make a curve.

Ok, I downloaded the new V12. It's going to take some getting used to finding out where everything is located. I'm also trying to find the D&M scene that was supposed to come with it. How do I download it? If you click the "DOWNLOAD your software" button in your portal account and scroll down it sh...

Congrats on V12, Am looking at the upgrade possibilities was wondering does the "new inlay toolpath tool" come with Aspire. On the web site it says it only comes with V Carve Pro?
Thanks

You missed this bit on the upgrade web page "Aspire V12 encompasses all of the new features in Cut2D & VCarve"

That's confusing as the profile and pocket toolpath are both drawn in the same style so should be the same.

For what's it worth I've attached screenshots of the same job in 11.5 and 12. If anything I would say 12 is fractionally brighter.

What display settings are you using in Windows?

Box creator is bombing when I try to use it in Aspire v12.

No Gadgets mentioned or listed on the Vectric v12 download page.

The Vectric gadgets are on the dedicated site: https://gadgets.vectric.com

Works fine for me with all supported versions of Windows running natively.

Sounds like the Parallels setup is auto clicking the dialog for some reason.

It's working fine for me (assuming I followed your steps correctly) so best to email support so they can go through your setup and get to the bottom of it.

This page lists the changes in V12 - https://docs.vectric.com/docs/V12.0/Asp ... index.html

Do you mean the wireframe preview in 3D mode of tool moves or the result of running a toolpath preview?

If it's the latter double check the Preview Simulation Quality setting on the Toolpaths menu,

Both styles of preview are as clear in 12 as they were in 11.5 for me.

Love the new look. It looks much more modern. The one thing I miss is the Save button that used to be on the Design Tab. The Open button is still there. Now have to either use CTRL-S or open the file menu. When I'm in mouse mode of operation, switching to keyboard is a little off. Is there anyway t...

If the toolpath/rapid moves intersect a keep out zone then you will see those icons to show you where the issue is in the 3D window. If you no longer want the keep out zone then you need to open the Keep Out Zone form (where you created it) and click Clear Zones. The toggle is for display rather tha...

Also you might want to look at exporting the sheets as PDF's (File menu, Export) as that will scale them to the printed sheet size automatically and might be easier than cutting/pasting.

Are you drawing in the 2D or 3D window? You can do both now and there is a lot more information displayed in 3D.
