Is there an option in the software for continuous framing? My laser is a bit away from the PC and its hard to hit the frame button and run over there in time to see the framing.
Having trouble finding the option in settings.
Thank you!
It runs continuously on my machine. As soon as I click frame it starts framing and keeps going…
I’ve found with these controllers, that if I’m too quick to frame something, it get missed and I have to stop it and start framing again…
I can hear the galvos operating without the laser source powered up.
There is a red dot always on option in the device settings…
One option is to get a second wireless mouse to keep by the laser and use this to start the frame, you may need to tape over the sensor so you don’t move it off the frame button.
Please test the following,
Click the frame button 5 or more times in rapid succession.
See if this offers enough time.
seriously this feature is not available??? Its an essential function, always writing on TF card to check the position and engraving like that is a huge slowdown…
i thought Lightburn “was the best in the Biz” 
Perhaps you have overlooked the distinction between “best available” and “perfect” …
perhaps you don’t own a laser where that small function would be an absolute lifesaver…
I think it’s been brought up, but go to Feature Suggestions and see if it’s there.
If not post it and we can vote on it…
@OwlHeadWoodCo, our documentation is always a good place to start.
Um…, Well…, welcome. I see you are new to our forum. Nice to have you here. The OP has a different laser system from the one you list. Did you try the suggestion provided by @JohnJohn? Your results?
This is something we work hard toward achieving, yet it is the opinion of the customer who matters most to us. We look forward to your feedback.
Well, even on the splash screen it says “Better software for Laser Cutters” not “Best”. 
I think it’s the best for my money anyway.
