Everybody knows that unless they just got their Glowforge today and haven’t read the manual. I asked about cut/score/engrave settings. As it stands now, I have to redo the settings by hand every time I bring a file in. I have some pretty complex files and it is easy to forget something. If anybody else has discovered some secret feature that does this, it would be great to know. No text editing would be necessary — you can name elements in Adobe Illustrator and I’ll bet you can in Inkscape and other programs. too. Here’s a file I created in under a minute. See the id= parameters on the elements and groups.

I’m sure this is already on the suggestion list. Would be nice to see it sooner rather than later.
On the other question, any @glowforge people want to let us know if there is any official documentation on whether there is an ordering by color and, if so, what that ordering is?
