do SVG files not work?
Not with the Add Artwork button. Those have to be loaded into the Catalog.
(The Add Artwork button is only for raster images.)
that sounds like a wonderful tip Iām totally not going to rememberā¦ remind me when itās my turn too
Iāve forgotten and remembered this several times.
Ah, I see. Is that like a library? In the cloud maybe? Lots of little details to learn.
Yep, itās where your files are stored in the Cloud interface.
Anyone wanting a preview of the system can look at the Tutorials in the Designing for the Laser Matrix.
I missed this before, thank you!
Holy Crap! (erm)
That is pretty amazing. Glowforge packaging engineers and Flex packers rock! (And GF designers.)
That is really amazing, and really good news.
I hope whatever is making the printing flakey clears up fast.
Iāve finally gotten something to start printing. Itās not exactly what I want. Itās also a very long print if it goes all the way.
@Jules and @karaelena -after this is done Iāll message you with what I want to have rasterred.
fingers crossed for your print
No prob. It might just be the wrong kind of file, and can likely be easily converted.
Wow, I am so sorry you had to deal with this. Sounds like UPS had alot of fun playing kick the Glowforge.
Also sounds like Glowforge could use more tape on their boxes.
I hope your luck improves
Here is a video I uploaded showing the workflow, starting with the logon screen for the browser app. It shows the design catalog and the workspace for operations. Some things may change from this as the software updates and improves, but for the moment this is what it takes.
Okayā¦ Mine wasnāt NEARLY as bad as all that. Just the tape on the bottom, really, and it most definitely was close to falling through, BUT IT DIDNāT.
Iām really glad you were able to get up and running!!!
Edit: Just read about your further issue. Man!!!
OMG - it sounds like this one fell off a height like a truck bed or got hit by a forklift. UPS will be liable for the damage for sure
Packaging - it would have to be designed by engineers to take regular courier movement. Ripped with holes big enough for a power cord to come outā¦that canāt a design flaw if UPS didnāt handle the box like they should
Thank you!
sucks to hear you are having problems, I cant imagine when mine comes and finding it in that kind of shape
I had put unmasked clear acrylic and unmasked glass, and the system wasnāt seeing it in the bed. So I guess thereās a safety measure that doesnāt let you cut on an empty bed.
A couple of times it let me do the coasters from the catalog on the clear acrylic, but thatās about where the camera is sensing and not sensing.
Masked glass, and wood let me generate a print so we will say ādisaster avertedā for now.
You can click in the upper left corner and specify Use Uncertified Material and enter your settings manually for it.
