How do I Cut Around Drawings?
In this example, we will specify a seam allowance for a built-in pattern and draw the pattern, then cut an outline around it.
The mat layout screen appears.
Depending on the pattern, the seam allowance may be applied as a default.
Since the pattern edited with CanvasWorkspace has already been converted to cut data, a seam allowance cannot be added from the operation panel on the cutting machine itself.
Transfer the data to the cutting machine after adding the seam allowance to the pattern on CanvasWorkspace.
It can be added from the [Create Offset Line] of the [Edit] menu on the CanvasWorkspace.
By selecting [Set to Drawing Line] from [Selected Original Line] in [Create Offset Line], the original object can be converted to drawing line and the allowance can be cutting line.
The created line can also be changed from the layer panel.

(2) | Specify the width (distance between the outline and cutting line) of the seam allowance. Touch or to change setting. | |
