Glowforge app taking 15-30 min to render files

Thanks for letting us know. I’m so sorry for the inconvenience.

It looks like the file is a little complex, but we have a trick you can use to help it render much faster:

  1. Open your design in your design software
  2. Draw a box around the design. Give it a stroke that is a different color than the rest of the design.
  3. Upload the design to the Glowforge app and open it. The design will open, but everything inside the box will be grouped.
  4. Set the box to be ignored in the steps bar and configure the settings of your design as you wish.

Happy printing!
