Lesson Three: Camel V-Groove/Deboss/Pen
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. 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. Template Slots See: Template Properties See: Template Library The Normal Bevel Closed V-Groove involves two symmetrical cuts: one in the matboard and a corresponding cut in the fallout, both forming a mirrored arrangement. The matboard is sliced halfway through the thickness and the core is visible from the front. First Cut: Cuts the Interior cut into the Fallout Clockwise. Second Cut: Cuts the Exterior cut into the Matboard Counter-Clockwise. Select V-Groove from the Current Bevel Type dropdown control to edit this configuration. Closed V-Groove See: 45 Degree Closed V-Groove Configurations See: 45 Degree Plus Closed V-Groove Configurations The Deboss cartridge stylus presses onto the surface of the matboard to create a subtle design. There are three Deboss stylus sizes: Wide, Medium, Thin. In addition to Template Shapes, you can also Deboss CutArts, LetterMats and TTFs. The Pen Cartridge is used to draw onto the surface of the matboard on the CMC to create a design. You can Pen Designs, CutArts, LetterMats and TTFs. |
