Templates are specialized parametric shape generators created by Wizard.

Many of the templates have additional Properties that can be edited which can change the shape, curves and corners of the design as well as a wide assortment of Parameters.

The Template Library displays the different templates that are available for use.

A Guide is a visual line marker which helps direct the motion or positioning of objects.

The sides and centers of Objects can snap to the Guide Lines.

CutArt™ are simple shapes and design elements created by Wizard.

CutArts can be applied to your current design and resized and rotated. They can be Cut, Debossed, Penned or cut on Vinyl.

• We will create and use Reference Lines to Mirror our corner design.

• We could place Guide Lines again at the Center of the mat.

• Drawing them manually allows you to select the Center of the Opening, which might not be at the same position of the Center of the Mat, especially if the Opening has been moved.

The Breaktool is used to Bisect the selected segments at the points where they Intersect in the Trace software.

The Break All Intersections function bisect ALL segments in the design at the points where they intersect with another segment in the Trace software.

• The Intersections are now broken where each element crossed over each other.

The Line tool in Trace will draw a Two-Point Line. 

The Line is defined by two points: the Initial Position and the Terminating Position (which are called “anchors”).

After it is drawn, a third point in the Center is displayed, which can be moved to alter the Line into an Arc.

The Join button will connect the selected segments together as one object in Trace. 

The Auto Join Segments button will automatically join adjacent segments together in Trace.

• The segments are Joined together to create a single object, highlighted in Red.

The Join button will connect the selected segments together as one object in Trace. 

The Auto Join Segments button will automatically join adjacent segments together in Trace.

• Now we’ll do the Outside Quadrant.

The Join button will connect the selected segments together as one object in Trace. 

The Auto Join Segments button will automatically join adjacent segments together in Trace.

• The segments are Joined together to create a single object, highlighted in Red.

• The unwanted Lines are deleted.

After it is drawn, a third point in the Center is displayed, which can be moved to alter the Line into an Arc.

The Mirror function will create a mirror copy of the selected object along a selected axis in Trace and Visualize.

The Line tool in Trace will draw a Two-Point Line. 

The Line is defined by two points: the Initial Position and the Terminating Position (which are called “anchors”).

After it is drawn, a third point in the Center is displayed, which can be moved to alter the Line into an Arc.

• The corner will be Mirrored Horizontally. 

The Dynamic Outsides feature adds the Border Size to the Bounding Rectangle of the current Group of Openings, adjusting the Outside Size as necessary in Designer and Visualize.

The Mirror function will create a mirror copy of the selected object along a selected axis in Trace and Visualize.

• Now we’ll Mirror it Vertically.

The Mirror function will create a mirror copy of the selected object along a selected axis in Trace and Visualize.

• The corners will be Mirrored Vertically. 

The Line tool in Trace will draw a Two-Point Line. 

The Line is defined by two points: the Initial Position and the Terminating Position (which are called “anchors”).

After it is drawn, a third point in the Center is displayed, which can be moved to alter the Line into an Arc.

• The Reference Lines are deleted.

• We want to Join the segments in the design so that we can Trace it.

The Join button will connect the selected segments together as one object in Trace. 

The Auto Join Segments button will automatically join adjacent segments together in Trace.

Tracing the Design provides the Bevel Type and other necessary information to the Vector design in order to either Cut or apply a Non-Blade Tool on the CMC.

The Set Bevels Tab in Trace contains the tools needed to Trace the design.

• We didn't make any changes to the CutArt itself that would require us to retangify the Arcs (such as moving a point), so there is no need to Tangify it or Convert Arcs to Splines.

• The Outer object is Traced as a V-Groove.

The Bevel Type is the Angle that the blade cuts on the Matboard/Fallout surface when it is not cut at a 90° Right Angle.

The Tangify function will smooth the connection between the Selected Arc Circuits that are below the specified Angle in the Tangify field to provide a smoother cutting transition between the arcs. 

The Tangify All Circuits will smooth the connection between All of the ArcCircuits that are below the specified Angle in the Tangify field to provide a smoother cutting transition between the arcs. 

Click Edit > Convert Arc to Splines to convert the Arcs into Bezier Splines. Splines can be Tangified with less distortion, which will give a smoother cutting path for the design in Trace. 

Tracing the Design provides the Bevel Type and other necessary information to the Vector design in order to either Cut or apply a Non-Blade Tool on the CMC.

The Set Bevels Tab in Trace contains the tools needed to Trace the design.

• The inner object is Traced as a 45° Opening.

Tracing the Design provides the Bevel Type and other necessary information to the Vector design in order to either Cut or apply a Non-Blade Tool on the CMC.

The Set Bevels Tab in Trace contains the tools needed to Trace the design.

The Bevel Type is the Angle that the blade cuts on the Matboard/Fallout surface when it is not cut at a 90° Right Angle.

• The unused Layer is removed.

• Optionally, you can also bring the CutArt straight to the Cut Preview from Trace.

• The Stained Glass design is completed with a fancy opening and a fancy V-Groove around it.

CutArt™ are simple shapes and design elements created by Wizard.

CutArts can be applied to your current design and resized and rotated. They can be Cut, Debossed, Penned or cut on Vinyl.

A Normal Bevel Closed V-Groove consists of two cuts - one in the Matboard and one in the Fallout, mirroring each other. They are cut Halfway through the matboard, revealing the Matboard Core.

The Normal Bevel is when the Angle of the blade cuts the Matboard/Fallout surface so it Slants Away from the surface of the Matboard/Fallout, and the Matboard Core is Seen from the front.
