Hi. I’m cutting a living hinge and when I go to cut it, it is passing each line twice. It does not seem to be the case of a double line. The screen shot is of the living hinge, in outline mode (Illustrator) at 800 %. I can go in 64000% and see nothing more than single lines. It is all a compound path on a single layer. Can anyone point me the right direction?
Thanks in advance.
98% of the time this happens, there are lines duplicated on top of each other in the file.
Thank you for your response and help. Is there a way to see the duplicated lines and get rid of them? At this point it is simply a compound path on a layer.
i can’t tell without seeing the actual file. you might try using the direct selection tool and selecting a single segment and deleting it to see if there’s anything underneath.
You’ll have to dive deeper into the compound path to see what it actually consists of.
I went ahead and selected the path and went to object > compound path > make (no option to release). I then selected the path and went to object > compound path > release. Though I have not re-cut the project (no need). I loaded the file to see the cut time. When I cut it the first time it was 55 minutes. This time it was 32 minutes, so I am assuming that it worked. If I cut it again, I will update this thread.
Than you all for your help and time.
I’m glad you resolved it! I’m going to close this thread. If you run into any other trouble, please start a new topic, or email us at support@glowforge.com. We’re here to help!
