Not at the moment, however we’re working on tools for this. (it will not handle images yet, just vectors)

This post describes using the Print & Cut feature to align multiple sections of the same job:

Cutting larger your bed size

I could split it into sections, like this: [image] Using boolean tools and/or node editing, I could split my design into three sections, bounded within those gray squares. When cutting the first 3rd, I would include the first two red markers, like this: [image] When cutting the middle third, I would ALIGN the design using th…

Thanks for your answer.
This makes sense and even I understand

For me it would be workable
