I have been sent a couple of files and they are not doing in the order that they are in in the cut/layer tab. The engraving is first and then the cut is 2nd. I msg the person that sent the file and she said they work in the right order on her machine
First, letās confirm the symptom. Normal order for layers will be from top-most layer and then each layer below in subsequent order. Is this not whatās happening?
A full screenshot of LightBurn would be useful to confirm.
If not that, what does your order by criteria under Optimization Settings in Laser window look like? Is the first criteria āOrder by Layerā? If not, try setting it that way and retest.
Iād have to hazard a guessā¦
Iād āRemoveā Order by Priority, and then switch off āReduce travel movesā and āChoose best starting pointā.
If you make changes to the Cut Optimization Settings, you can verify the order of operations with the Preview window.
It may be of interest to review the following:
Thank you I will try that.
If you did not have āOptimize Path Cutā enabled initially, enabling that that alone may change the behavior.
I still find the behavior slightly odd, though, as I feel like the default without optimizations should go by layer order. There may be something that Iām not considering.
