Hallo, hat von euch schon jemand in Millmage die ADD TABS funktion ausprobiert? wenn ich nur ein rechteck zeichne und dieses mit 4 Tabs versehen möchte, damit mir das Bauteil nicht durchfällt, verschwinden die 4 grünen Punkte jedesmal. Gibt es hierzu eine Lösung oder funktioniert das bei anderen Benutzern? Danke für eure Unterstützung ---

If it’s like lightburn they only show when you have layers window or the tabs icon selected. ---

Danke Kallenberger, ich habe soeben gesehen, wenn man sich die vorschau ansieht, sind die haltebrücken mit eingezeichnet. Aber ich möchte diese doch auch verschieben können an bestimmte positionen. Wenn diese aber immer gleich wieder verschwinden, geht das nicht. ---

"Thanks, Kallenberger, I just noticed that when looking at the preview, the holding tabs are actually shown. However, I need to be able to move them to specific positions. If they keep disappearing right away, that isn’t possible." ---

I don’t have Millmage so can’t give you specific help. ---

Hy Terry, Thank you very much for the quick response! Your answer was the solution. 🙂 It would be a great improvement to have a toggle (like an eye icon) in the operations panel to permanently show or hide tab indicators on the workspace without having to remain in the Tab Edit mode. Thank you Terry ---

I think tabs should all be handled in the cut/layers window. ---

why would you want to keep them on and see them all the time ? when and if i use tabs they are the last thing to be added before i start the cut once ive edited where i want them i never look at them again i dont see the point of needing another toggle. there is a tab in your tool operation, there is an add tab, top of main operation and than one in the edit dropdown, in my opinion i think there is to many tab options 🙂 to me it makes perfect sense to have them under edit tools , as you are making an edit when first starting with MM you may think some of the things the developers have done don’t seem right or even make sense, especially if you have been a LB user, They are the same but not the same in so many ways, there has been a lot of changes and tweaking since MM was released about 18 mths ago , in some of the early rcs there were what i would call drastic changes, at the start they didnt make sense but after a while , im glad the changers were made all i say is give it time to gel with MM
