Has anyone had any recent issues of a stored files getting deleted? I had one with a few ornaments on it. The preview on my dashboard showed the outlines per usual. I clicked on it and it got stuck on loading for forever and a day (per usual) so I refreshed and then the preview was blankā¦ clicked on it and nothing at all is there!
You can try using a different browser and/or clicking on the file and hitting the three dots and then clicking the reset button.
I tried that it wont even let me press refresh because there are no designs in there.
Unfortunately that only works for catalog designs.
Itās worth clearing your cache and reloading your browser, though, in case thatās where the problem is!
Iām so sorry to hear your design is gone. We need a bit more information to investigate.
- Information about the browser you are using.
- A screenshot of what you are seeing in the app.
Please do the following:
- Go to https://www.whatismybrowser.com/
- Look for the header that says āYour web browserās unique URLā
- Click the button that says āCopy URL to Clipboardā
- Reply to this, and paste in the link provided
If possible, could you please send me a screenshot of what you see in the Glowforge app when this happens? Make sure to include the rulers in your screenshot and show as much of the bed as possible
To take a screenshot:
-
Mac: Press Shift-Command-4 and click and drag a box around your image. Youāll find the screenshot file saved on your desktop.
-
Windows: Click on the Start Menu and type āsnipping toolā. Open the Snipping Tool > New then click and drag a box around your image. Click the Save icon and name and save your file.
This will help us understand the circumstances around your error so we can work on it for you.
And now it didnāt save two door hangers that I designedā¦ what is happening here
Thank you for providing your browser information. Iām sorry about the ongoing trouble. Will you please try a few quick steps to check if the app is saving changes made to other designs, and let me know how it goes? Here are the steps to follow:
- Create a new design by uploading a file to the app
- Once the design loads, add another image or other object to the design by pressing the ā+ā button in the menu bar and clicking āUploadā
- After the 2nd object loads into your design, return to the design library. When you return to the library, this should automatically save the changes made to the design
- Re-open the design, and check that both the original artwork, and the artwork you added are still present
Please let us know how it goes! If the app doesnāt save your changes when doing the above, please let us know the time and date you gave this a try and weāll extract logs and investigate further.
It worked
Thank you for the update. Iām glad to hear that the above test worked. Have you run into trouble with any of your designs not saving as expected since then?
Yes I had two designs on the same page that didnāt save.
Thank you for updating us, I apologize for the delay in response. Would it be possible to obtain a date and time of the two designs you noticed that did not save correctly?
Have you noticed that you are able to modify and save these same designs currently, or are updates to these designs still experiencing trouble?
Itās been a little while since Iāve seen any replies on this thread so Iām going to close it. If you still need help with this please either start a new thread or email support@glowforge.com.
