Do either of these allow you to seperate paper piecing patterns?

Say I have the entire pattern as my SVG file. I'd like to put pieces on seperate mats so I can cut one section at a time. For instance a truck, I want to put the body on one mat, the tires on another and the windows on another so I can cut them in diffrent colors..
Lots of cute, paper piecing files on my blog - all free!

Are you looking for something to do this automagically? I don't think either could. But with SCAL you can certainly select the pieces and group them in a way you can show and hide them for cutting, or move them into another page, or move them around on a single page so you could put multiple pieces of paper on the mat at one time.
