Do this... Tools->Customization...->Workspace->Commands Select 'View' from the drop down menu Find 'Zoom One-Shot' on the list of commands. Drag the Zoom One-Shot icon over to whatever toolbar you want. I put it right under the normal Zoom icon on the standard toolbar on the screen's...

Maybe, maybe not. You don't need an automatic mark sensing apparatus. You can print a 3 or preferably 4 point set of manual marks and locate them with a light pen, bomb sight, or even the cutter blade. What you do need is cutter software capable of reading these reference points back from the...

Not enough information. It's like saying "I have a wheel, how do I build an automobile?" Nonetheless, here's the definitive answer: You add a path to the image that represents the contour cut. You register the media with the image in the cutter such that the origins of the cutter and...

Once upon a time I had a Panther, nee GCC, and I thought that, other than the manual seemed to have been translated from the native Venusian, it was just fine thank you. I thought this because I really had nothing with which to compare it. I didn't know any better Then I got a Graphtec FC7000...

As well as their distortion envelope and their node editing functions. Flexi's efforts in these matters are rather primitive compared to Corel's. With a couple of notable exceptions, like Flexi's corner and curve smoothing node editing functions. All in all, if I were diddling nodes on a vector...

First off, someone inquiring as to this has about the same probability as a full planetary alignment coincident with a complete parting of the waters. But if someone should ask, you are under no obligation whatsoever to provide an answer. Instead develop your own version of the Withering Stare...

I prefer an oblique approach. Understatement is the key to elegance in these matters.

How, exactly, did you try to do this? Create the vector image that is, not save it as this or that. You cannot change a bitmap into a vector image. There is no information carried in a bitmap that would allow recreation of any vector image from which it might have been created. If it was...

Well then, that certainly clears it up.

Why not?

Tools->Options->Workspace->Edit and uncheck 'Auto-center new Power Clip contents'

You might want to do yourself a favor and set the 'Condition Priority' to 'Manual' in the Background settings. Then the plotter will pay no attention to whatever cutting conditions get sent to it via the software. You have 8 cutting conditions you can set on the plotter, more than enough for any...

Mallorca, yourorca, who's counting? I've always wanted an excuse to say that...thanks.

What method, exactly, are you using to align the media? When you say 'off', just what do you mean? Is the cut long or short and in the X, Y, or both directions?

Not a problem. Enter the 'B D' as text. Enter the 'S' as another text object Diddle the spacing on the 'B D" and alignment with the 'S' to get everything right where you want it. Outline the 'S' with proper size, any color, for whatever relief you want between the 'S' and the 'B D'...

It looks very much like your voice coil is hosed. Here's a not too good picture of mine. It's an FC7000 but the basic mechanism is still the same. Note that my voice coil looks like it's supposed to look. It would appear to the casual observer that your tool carriage experienced something...

There's a fundamental difference between bending text to a path and using a distortion envelope. As Fred noted, only text contains sufficient information to force it to an arbitrary path. Whereas a distortion envelope remaps each and every point within it thus creating the distortion. It...

Probably a couple of reasons. Gif is an old proprietary Compuserve format and a gif file can have a transparancy color. Only until recently could Flexi deal with bitmap transparancies. Moreover a gif file really isn't just an encoding and compression scheme. A gif has dither information, color...

Not quit. 'Raster' is the mechanism/process whereby a bitmap, and everything else on virtually all digital monitors in use today, is displayed. All raster really means is a beam traveling back and forth exciting phosphors along its path. As opposed to, say, the display of an oscilliscope where...
