scoring

Hi there,

I am new to the ecal software and I am trying to find out how I could add a scoreline to the bottom of an image (bottom of a cross) so that the image will not be cutting out entirely but so that I can pop it out from the paper without actually cutting it all the way. ( For making pop-up cards or pop-up images)
I just can't figure out how to leave part of my image uncut.

Can anyone help with that?

Thank you.

No, that does not answer my question. I want to cut out a cross that is suppose to stay attached to the paper on the bottom.
So that I can make it stand up or pop-up in a card.

I attached a picture off how I want it to look.

Thank you for your answer.

Please read this and see if it helps...this is how I do that in SCAL 2, so not sure if the same can be done in ecal, but I would think so.

Oh, pop up card. The picture cleared it up.

Here is a site for the template with instructions.

You buy the template in PDF format that can be converted to a file eCAL can deal with, score and cut then follow the instructions. Very nice card.
