Ability to still use program whilst cutting design

Post by alliellis »

I was cutting a word book the other day and wanted to make an adjustment to Page 2 but the program makes you wait until the current page has finished cutting. Wouldn't it be good if whilst your machine is cutting one design, you could be working on your next, instead of sitting there waiting? ;)

Allie, I totally agree.

I haven't tried it but I wonder if you could have two copies of SCAL open and alternate between them in cutting. I will give it a go later this evening and let you know.

Is it possible to have two copies open at same time on a Mac?
