Enable Rail Dodge

The Enable Rail Dodge will move the design up and over on the matboard to avoid the clamping area on the CMC 9000 and 8000.

  • Click on the design to select it.

  • Check the Enable Rail Dodge checkbox to use a Rail Dodge on CMC 9000 and 8000

  • A Rail Dodge is a small piece of matboard or other material used to position the pre-cut matboard up into the cutting area when using borders less than 1.5" and not cutting the outside.

  • Enter the distance to move the design in the X Origin field; the Y Origin field uses the same numerical value. 

  • It will move the lower left corner of the design to the new X/Y position and it will display Dodge on the bottom of the screen.

  • Note: The outside cut is shown here merely for visual reference of where the pre-cut matboard will be positioned on the board. This feature can also be used to move the design to avoid flaws in the matboard.
