Toolpath Templates
Toolpath Templates in combination with Batch Calculate is a powerful feature that allows you automatically apply pre-created toolpaths and toolpath settings to vector artwork or vector layers.
Creating 3D Weaves
The Weave Tool allows you to easily create a 3D weave using 2D 'Drive Rail' vectors. The generated 3D shape passes both over and under itself for a unique, decorative weave effect. This tool can also be used to generate Celtic Knots.
Merging Vectors
The Merge Vectors toolset offers you a series of automated trimming tools to clean up complex vector artwork automatically. This tutorial walks you through the Weld, Intersect, Subtract, Trim and Explode options under Vector Merge - and explores the workflow required to achieve the right result.
Lost the Text on a Curve Option
For all our users creating signs, adding text to a curve can be crucial, whether for a banner, border or as part of the general design. For all those who can't add the text to a curve, we have you covered with this quick two minute tutorial! In this video, we go through your text...
Vector Doctor
The Vector Doctor allows you to identify and fix problems with vector artwork that may lead to problems when attempting to generate toolpaths.
Transforming & Projecting Toolpaths
The ability to Transform Toolpaths lets you adjust pre-created toolpaths without the need to amend the original vectors from your design. This is a great time saving feature that allows you to make adjustments without having to recalculate all toolpaths within your model. A further feature is the ability to project 2D toolpaths over a...
3D Sculpting
In this tutorial, we'll explore the 3D Sculpting Tools In Carveco Maker Plus. We take a look at the Smooth and Erase tools, two tools which are simple to use but highly effective at creating organic artwork, cleaning up areas of your design or the localised blending of different relief models.
Fixing Problems Without Using the Vector Doctor
In this latest addition to our tips and tricks, we take you beyond the Vector Doctor when identifying problems to your design. We show you how to investigate your design thoroughly so you can spot any potential issues, as well as how to solve them. We cover vector loops, intersections and open vectors in both...
Paste along a Curve
The Paste Along a Curve tool allows you to create multiple copies of a Vector along a curve. You can specify either the number of copies or specify the distance between the copies.
