Make a test area include all layers

[stonefox (Steen)]

I have a project with many layers and which is 65x40 cm.

Before doing this job, I would like to do a test of a small area to see the result

.

If I use the Arrow to mark my test area, I don’t get all the layers and that’s what I want.

Question 1:
How do you make a test of an area where all the layers that are in the project are included in the test?

Question 2:

With several layers, will the layers be printed in the order they are in in the layer panel?

Question 3:

With several layers, can I decide in which order they should be printed?

Question 4:

If so, what type of layer is recommended to start and end with?

Q1
In your project, draw a new small project with all the layers you want to test, outside the work surface. Mark it and group it. Now you can either save it or test it in your existing project after you have moved your actual project out of the workspace.

Q2
Yes

Q3
Yes

Q4
The outer edge itself, if the item is to be cut out, naturally at the end, all parts that need to be cut inside, I cut out second last. Fill layer or photo and other engraving tasks, I start with.
The actual organization of the processing order of larger projects is important because a lot of time can be saved with the right organization.
“Optimize Cut Path” is a good tool for optimizing the task. In order to become comfortable with it, some time must be spent experimenting with it.

I don’t understand your answer for question 1.
Is the a tutoriel video ?

@stonefox

I don’t understand your answer for question 1.

Ok, so I haven’t understood your question.
Specify what you want to test.

Se images - Make testprint include all layer ( with there unique settings)
The blue area on the images.

Before I start the whole project, I want to fine-tune the settings for each individual layer as they are printed simultaneously.

i want to make a copy of the original and then use the “Cut Shapes” function, it is perfect for the task.
I’m currently working on a project, but will send you a screen dump shortly.

It is, as I said, function “Cut Shapes”, it makes a cutout with all the layers with their properties
