Lesson Three: Camel V-Groove/Deboss/Pen

Create a V-Groove/Deboss/Pen that Follows a Template Shape

Create a V-Groove/Deboss/Pen that Follows a Template Shape

  • If you want to add a V-Groove, Deboss or Pen object and have it follow closely around a multi-layer Template shape, the results aren't always as expected, as displayed here. 

  • This is because the V-Groove/Deboss/Pen is placed using the default parameters which mirror that of the Bottom Layer, rather than being an Offset from the Top Mat that we're trying to flow around. 

  • This lesson shows how to easily create a V-Groove, Deboss or Pen object to follow closely around a Template shape.

  • First we need to make sure we are designing the layers in the correct order for these instructions.

  • On the FrameShop Main Page, click Admin and stay on the Defaults tab.

  • Under Layer Direction select Bottom Up if it is not already set to that.

  • Click Save and return to the Main Page.

    • You can change this back to the original setting later if desired.
