Re: Question about upgrading to SCAL 2 and Gypsy

I saw someone post that some online companies may have it while supplies last so if updates don't mess up the software or the software doesn't mess up my Cricut / Gypsy I would like to try and get a copy. :)

Question about upgrading to SCAL 2 and Gypsy

I still have SCAL 1 and thought of getting 2 but didn't because I was afraid it might interfere with how my Gypsy might work. I actually haven't used SCAL since buying the Gypsy and would like to use it again. I see all the commotion about no longer being able to use Cricut with SCAL 3 and SCAL2 is ...

Re: Cricut mat *TIP*

I have used many of the above suggestions as well as my brayer to get paper to adhere to a less sticky mat. I've also taped off non-sticky edges and sprayed the mat with Krylon Re-positional adhesive - voila! New mat. :)

Re: Inkscape Please help!!!!

Jancy I tried deleting the nodes but I end up deleting the whole thing instead. I had made my word, >object path> object union. Then I selected and clicked on the nodes button like you suggested. I tried clicking on a node then clicked delete, and everything disappeared??

Re: Inkscape Please help!!!!

Ok. I think I have it finally figured out! I can type letters and weld them and make shadows AND get the file to show up in SCA. One thing I realized I was doing wrong was that when I tried to open the svg file in SCA I was choosing "open" and not "import" It won't show up unless...

Re: Inkscape Please help!!!!

Ok, I tried Object Path, then Path Union. It doesn't show up in SCA. Then I tried doing those steps and adding Trace Bitmap and still nothing. :(

Re: Inkscape Please help!!!!

Ok, I got some typing down, now how do I get it to show up in SCA? Actually, I know this could have been created more easily in SCA but I just wanted to try it. I saved it, then "Traced Bitmap" pressed "ok" a number of times ( it doesn't just go away after you click the button) I...

Re: Inkscape Please help!!!!

Girls, thanks for your replies.... I tried the tutorial you posted Shari and though the instructions seemed easy, I am not able to do any where near how it is explained. For one, I can't find " Landscape Mode" The only way to get anything to show up is to make a text box first, then choose...
