  1. There is a free upgrade to Sign Blazer here: Upgrade to VinylMaster LTR from Sign Blazer for free Note: You must have proof of ownership such as an invoice or receipt.
  2. Yes you will need to break the curve apart at the points which suits the artwork. This is all done in node edit mode. Make sure you work in wireframe and turn the objects fill off here:
  3. If you trace an object like this it will have an inside path and an outside path since it is a pen or a stroke. To have a single curve, select the object and from the Curve (menu) click Break Apart and then delete the path you do not wish to keep and you will be left with either inside or outside curve (path).

    how to cut multi colors with VM? Help

    There is an issue with tracing white in certain artwork in the current build (it is not the previous builds), which is being fixed and will be in the next update which is expected to release next week.
  7. Hit (press) the + key with the object selected to make a perfect copy. Alternatively, press duplicate form the first row of tools. Then move it off using the arrow keys. But set Nudge first to whatever moves it off enough for the size you are working with.

    Accessing Glyphs

    VinylMaster CUT uses Artistic text not Text Boxes - but yes, you can have as many individual blobs of text that you like and weld.

    Accessing Glyphs

    For text boxes containing multiple fonts etc. (paragraph text), you will need PRO or DSR:
  10. This was recorded using the VinylMaster PRO demo: https://youtu.be/0-vY4rY_8Ec It shows how to make this effect using PRO:
  11. You need to use the Weld/Shape tools. Work in wireframe so it is easy to see what you are doing. Create the overlapping artwork and nudge a copy ( + symbol on the keyboard ) to the right or left of the original. Select the original and click Intersect, then select the copy and press Punch Out. Then nudge the copy back over to the original... that's it!

    Cant find psn location

    There are four (4) ways to retrieve your PSN, as follows: (1) If you have bought the software, or installed an update anytime after October 2017 your PSN is now available from the About Window. To open About ckick the Help (menu) in the main window and then click About. (2) If your software is older than October 2017, you can find your PSN using Windows Explorer on your computer: Open Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\FutureCorp and you will see the name of the program, open this folder and double click on DefaultPaths.INI For example: C:\Program Files (x86)\FutureCorp\**Name of your Software**\DefaultPaths.INI If you have installed to another hard drive on your computer such as D or E etc. then substitute that drive letter with C:\ (above) Inside DefaultPaths.INI You will see this information near the bottom of the data: PSN= The number listed is your PSN. (3) If you have not activated the software, then only USCutter will have your PSN and you must contact them to retrieve your PSN. (4) If you do not have access to your computer, you can request to retrieve your PSN, please fill in this form: Request to Retrieve PSN
