I'm unable to get at the computer with Engravelab for a few days.</p> <p>However, the issue with this is select the objects by SWEEP (hold down the left mouse button and draw a square around the objects to select)or when I cut and paste from Corel Draw... it just doesn't want to fill the paths properly.</p><hr /><a name="a4963_7"></a><p><b>From: Bill (ALBILLBERT2000)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4963.7">#7</a>]<br /> 3 Oct 2006<br /><b>To: varn (VARNCO)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4963.6">#6</a>] 27 Oct 2006</p> Ok... lets try this... I just drew two circles one inside of the other.. I used the left mouse to select both items... then up to (cut) and in the fly out box is a choice to create a tool path.. if your using a diamond or a cutter instead of a lazer then this is the way to do it.. you will have to pick a cutter style to let it fill the path the way you want... if your using a laser it would be easier to call me.. hope this helps..<p class="edit_text">EDITED: 3 Oct 2006 by ALBILLBERT2000</p> <hr /><a name="a4963_8"></a><p><b>From: westy</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4963.8">#8</a>]<br /> 27 Oct 2006<br /><b>To: varn (VARNCO)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4963.1">#1</a>] 27 Oct 2006</p> <p>Varn,<br /> The answer is in this particular case the "o" is just 2 circles and not an actual font. Most likely an imported file or a trace. In any case, you have found the answer, connecting the path is the right way to go.<br /> Chris</p><hr /><p align="center">Show messages: <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4963.1">All</a>  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4963.1">1-4</a>  5-8</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2025 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
