Click New Mat Design on the FrameShop Main Page.

Click Cancel on the New Openings Screen.

On the Openings Tab, bring two template #312: Photo onto the Editor.

Click on the Properties Tab to edit it.

Enter the desired size for the two #312: Photo openings.

• Remember that we are going to merge the two templates together so keep that in mind when sizing the design.

Click on the Bottom #312: Photo opening.

In the Rotation field, enter 90 for the degree of Rotation.

The #312: Photo will be rotated 90°.

Click on the Parameters Tab.

Change the Notch Size to 1.375 for each opening.

Move each of the #312: Photo openings into the center of the mat.

Select both openings and click the Group Selection button.

The two openings should merge where they overlapped.

If you need to make an adjustment to the design, click the Group Selection button to unmerge them, then click on the background to unselect them.

Re-edit as desired and then regroup them again.

The edited Photo Notch design is now completed.

NOTE: You can repeat this process to merge any two templates together in any configuration as long as they share the same Bevel Type.

Alternatively, you could create a similar design with the #102: Oval and the #105: French Stair.

In this example, I made the #102: Oval 1” larger than the #105: French Stair.

Click on the Parameters Tab for the #105: French Stair.

The Step Width is .8125 and the N_Steps is 1.

Select both openings and click the Group Selection button.

This gives you an alternative to this design, plus the ability to change the number of Notches and their sizes.
