![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() You close your computer one night and then next morning open it back up and are faced with that spinning wheel that says, “Please wait while updates are installing.” In this day and age, you may not even have a choice on whether to accept these updates to the Operating System or not, it just happens. Now, I say all that to give you a little back story on my view of software updates as a Silhouette Studio user and Terri Johnson Creates Licensed Silhouette Instructor. I troubleshoot a lot on Facebook and when teaching classes at events, so I see a lot of things pop up. * Let it Bee – Design #259286 by Megan Hardy Designs, Love Pets Party – Fly – Design #253648 by Lettering Delights Not all the issues that come up can be blamed on the software. Today, I’m going to touch on 2 “bugs” in the software that we experienced in my classes at the All Things Silhouette Conference this past weekend. I say “bugs” because they are not detrimental bugs but are changes that a user can still work with once they know why it is happening. Today we will discuss 2 of the things that I saw during my classes – edit points & multiple machines recognized.īoth of these are workable “bugs” once you understand that they are happening. Edit pointsĮdit points are the data points of a design that the software recognizes and relays to the Silhouette machine to make the cut happen.įor a more information on edit points and working with them check out this blog post HERE. The typical behavior is if you double click on a design, they will appear. However, in the current public versions of the Silhouette software, they are more sensitive and like to come out to play much easier – sometimes with a single click of the mouse button. And sometimes they do not necessarily show up on the screen as the dots, especially if a design is grouped together. There are a few ways you can tell if the object has entered point edit mode. The first would be that the gray edit points appear on the edge of the design. The next way to tell if the Edit points have come out to play is if you can see the Edit Points options in the top left corner of the QAT (Quick Access Toolbar) or if the Edit Points Panel opens on the right side. There may be times that you may not see the gray dots of the edit points so at first glance, you may not know that’s what happened, but check to see if the Point Edit mode panels come up. ![]()
