cutme 5 Posted March 7, 2011 could someone please give me a complete idiots guide from start to finish, on how to punch through a graphic over another in signblazer, many thanks Lorne i will go one better than that. go to your program files and where signblazer is installed, you will find a learning guide. it has the answer to your question. or, you put one object on top of another object, select them both and select punch through weld. there is more to it, but that is the simple answer.

My 'Idiot's Guide' to using SignBlazer is one word: don't. I say the exact opposite of what Nuke says . SignBlazer is the easiest , bestest software ever . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted March 8, 2011 What do you want to know? You select two objects that are on top of each other, Arrange + Weld + Punch Through and it makes a cutout in the bottom object where the top object is. If you don't want to keep the top object, use Arrange + Combine. It does the same thing but deletes the top object. http://screencast.com/t/ekxaQn8V Jay 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it better to put the small decal under or over the larger decal ? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it better to put the small decal under or over the larger decal ? thanks I would rather lay it on top than punch it through. It's too hard to get it to fit exact and shrinkage is another issue.
