Hi to everyone.
I’m trying to cut (or break in AutoCAD) a line that is longer than the accepted dimension for my Sculpfun S9. The idea is to break a design in two or more parts not larger than 410x420mm. Of course, one option is to do this directly in AutoCAD, but I am interested how to do this in Lightburn.
Thanks
To do this properly you’ll need to get familiar with a few key tools in LightBurn.
- Cut Shapes Tool - This is useful if you need to split a shape and leave an unclosed shape
Cut Shapes Tool - LightBurn Software Documentation - Boolean Operations - This is essential and very powerful for using 2 different closed shapes to add, subtract, or intersect each other. This will result in a closed shape.
Modifier Tool - LightBurn Software Documentation - Edit Nodes Tool - this is the most flexible but the most manual tool. It is used to move, add, modify, and remove the nodes that make up the path of a shape.
Node Editing - LightBurn Software Documentation
Work through some of this. The documentation is very thorough but very dense. Every line is meaningful.
Circle back to the forum for specific questions or challenges.
Thanks to both of you, tomorrow I will try to read/watch your links and I will come back to you for more specific informations.
