That's interesting I never tried a cut line below. If that works well it would be very easy to quickly insert a line beneath each line of text and let the cutter do it. I'm sure I could add the lines quicker than using the knife. I'll have to try that, thanks.

If you mean draw in each little line across the spaces between the text that would take longer than using the exacto knife. I did try an experiment where I placed a line across the text and then moved it behind the text. The cutter ignored the fact the line was behind the text and just cut...

LOL!! Always a comedian in the crowd. Yes, that is the tedious, time wasting chore I was hoping to somehow eliminate. You would think that these high end software programs that cost four thousand dollars would have come up with a weeding tool for adding custom weed lines.

This is a problem I have not found a solution to. If I create a sign with text inside a border, and then add weed lines, those weed lines will not extent to the text inside the border rendering them useless. Does anyone have a trick or tip for adding weed lines inside a border? I'm using Flexi...

Thanks guys, I'll need to explore those ideas. I figured it out. While none of the suggestions above produced the results I was looking for, it got me to experiment with other options. I discovered that if I make a shape, like a rectangle, specify No Fill and increase the line thickness and...

I seem to be having a time of it creating borders to cut and I could use some advice. Flexi has an Advanced Border Tool that has a group of premade borders but they are not always the shape I need especially if it's a simple rectangle with rounded corners that I can specify the corner radius. If...

Not a great feature This is definitely an area where Flexi is needing a redesign. The controls for this feature are not at all intuitive and down right confusing. Add to that the confusing manner in which colors are selected. You could very well think you are using the same colors on the...

Still no fix for AVG in Win XP. AVG says they are unable to determine why Upgrading from their 2012 to 2013 version causes the same problem. Looks like I am stuck with version 2012 or switching to a different virus software.

Could be caused by ANY software that modifies the security on your computer. Personally I would not have done a system restore. You should check with the Casmate people to see if anyone else is having trouble, and if they have a fix.

Good luck with that. I have been trying to find such a program but have had no luck finding any one software that will let you catalog ALL the types of files you might like to work with. It's a real pain in the ***. If you find one please let me know.

Hi, I have a new Summa Cutter on the way and I was wondering if my Flexi 10 supports the Summa Flex-cut feature? For a software that costs four Grand I would hope it does, and be real pissed if it doesn't. So far all I see is Countour Cut in Flexi. Thanks

The higher levels of Win 7, Ultimate and Pro have an XP add on available for download from Microcrap that should run any old software. Another option I chose was a dandy little utility call Boot-It Bare Metal. Which allows me to run both XP and Win 7 off the same hard drive as a dual boot...

Thanks for the reply. I didn't know that would have an effect on that I'll have to play with it. In the meantime I think I may have solved my issue. In the Drop Shadow Advance button the resolution was set to 75 dpi, I changed it to 300 dpi and my shadow appeared. In the same dialog the Opacity...

Has anyone else encountered the Drop Shadow effect not working? I tried to apply a drop shadow to a line of text and after selecting the shadow color and hitting Apply nothing happens. I can see the outline of the shadow but the color does not appear. Any Ideas? Thanks

FYI, I got the info from a moderator at the AVG forum with instructions on removing AVG entirely and re-installing version 2012. All problems are gone and I'm back in business. It would appear there is more than just the Windows Update that is making system modifications on how open fonts are...

More than just Windows Update Westpointsigns, What anti-virus are you using? I have the same issue but have not done any Windows Updates in years. Seemed to have happened when I updated my AVG anti-virus software.

I'll second that motion!

Worked fine before the AVG 2013 Upgrade.

Still doesn't explain why this happened on my XP machine when I didn't do any Windows Updates. There is more to this than just the Windows Updates.

I have a similar problem but it's on an XP machine I have not done any Windows Updates on in two years. In Flexi the fonts don't display when typed, and in Illustrator the Adobe fonts are missing completely from the Fonts List. The only thing I updated was my Free version of AVG anti-virus from...
