Hello,

Will this cost more over the 9.5 upgrade? I was going to upgrade next week, just waiting for payday!!

Thanks,

Lee

Looks like I posted in the wrong place. I needed the Vcarve pro side

The .5 version is always free, you will have to pay to upgrade to 10, but 10.5 will not cost anymore.

Make sure you include being able to nest on a drop, and the remainder of the nest on full sheets. Something that is a major major need.

Can you include a "DWIT" (Do What I'm Thinking) button?

I've asked for that a few times over the years. There's quite a few things I would like to have in nesting but nesting programs that do all the things I want cost more than Aspire and all they do is nest so it brings it into perspective a bit what a complex, niche market it is.

Will we ever get built in rest machining? Despite all the video's I've watched, it just seems inconsistent. Of course that may be why it is not built in.

How about adaptive clearing?

Can we get a feature that concerts all beziers to curves when outputting a tool path?

I'd also like multiple levels in the textures selector.

Here's the issue. There are round lines that are curves. But beziers are a different animal. The problem comes in when you output a bezier to a toolpath with a post processeor that uses arcs. It gets split into hundreds of little segments, whereas a curve is one line of code. You can take a design with lots of curves and output a file that's 1mb, but convert it to curves it's about 150k.
