Design Template in FrameShop | |
|---|---|
Place a one layer 4 x 5" #506 Star template on the FrameShop Design Editor. | |
Click on the Properties tab. Click on the Parameters tab. Change the No. of Points to 6. Change the Spikiness to 0. Change the Mode to 2. Change the Line Length to 2.85". | |
Place a CutArt in the Editor | |
|---|---|
Click on the Openings tab. Click the Add CutArt button. | |
Select the desired CutArt by either searching for it in the search field or by navigating through the directories. I selected ScrollAN for the CutArt. Click the Edit button. | |
The CutArt is placed on the Editor. | |
Move the CutArt so that it is aligned with the top of the star template. If you accidentally click off of the CutArt and it moves behind the star, hit the PgUp/PgDn key to cycle through the openings. | |
Bring Design into Trace | |
|---|---|
Bring the design into Trace via the Right-Click Menu* or from the Cut Preview Screen. *If you use the right-click method, hold down the CTRL key and select both openings before selecting Convert to CutArt. | |
Draw Alignment Lines | |
|---|---|
We will add some alignment lines that we will use to mirror the CutArt. You can mirror the CutArt without the alignment lines, but adding them will help illustrate the process. Click the Line button on the Trace and Draw tab. The Draw radio button is automatically selected. Right-click on the center point of one of the lines of the polygon. | |
Right-click on the center point of the opposite line of the polygon. The line is placed. | |
Do the same with the other sides of the polygon, right-clicking and snapping to the center point then snapping to the center point on the opposite point. | |
