title45° Normal Bevel Opening Full Definition

The 45° Normal Bevel Opening is created by cutting into the matboard surface with the blade angled at 45°, thereby slanting the bevel away from the matboard surface.

The matboard core is visible from the front.

The Bevel Type refers to the angle at which the blade cuts the surface of the matboard when it deviates from the 90° right angle cut.

The Bevel Type determines the initial blade plunge position.

Select Normal Bevel or Normal Bevel-Front of Mat from the Current Bevel Type dropdown control to edit this configuration.

titleWhen Cutting from the Front

Cutting from the Front will cut with the face of the mat toward the operator, and can be selected on the Cutting Preview.

On the

Configurations

screen the Current Bevel Type dropdown control will display the bevel types in this manner:Cut from the Back bevel type names will be displayed with no further label; i.e., Normal Bevel.

If you are cutting an element that must be applied to the front of the mat, such as a V-Groove or Pen design, any openings on that layer will also cut from the front and use the Front of Mat configuration item; i.e., Normal Bevel - Front of Mat.

So if you are having problems with a Normal Bevel cut on the same layer as a V-Groove, make sure you select Normal Bevel-Front of Mat to edit the configurations for that opening.
