Re: Cameo 4 Bluetooth Connectivity SCAL5

Even though you don't want to use Silh Studio, it's probably a good idea to use it to make sure both Bluetooth and USB are working on this Cameo and if you need help, you can contact Silhouette. Once you make sure that Silh Studio will communicate successfully, then you can try from SCAL. Note that ...

Re: original cameo

I would suggest downloading Silhouette Studio from Silhouette's web site... the basic free one. Then you can see if your cutter will communicate with it. If it fails, then you know, for sure, it's something in Windows that is preventing it and you can see if Silhouette support can help. I've heard i...

Re: SCAL4 or SCAL5 with legacy Cricut machines

Yes, you can apparently use SCAL6 with a legacy Cricut. Everything you need to know is at this FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cricutexpression Then, after joining, try this link. It's a full page tutorial on using SCAL6 with a legacy Cricut: https://www.facebook.com/legacy/notes/408467576...

Re: Thicker letters

She makes inaccurat SCAL videos, thus I wouldn't trust anything she shows. Here's a method typically used for thickening letters. Type the text. Select the text. Go to Path>Offset Path and enter a very small Offset size, such as 0.005". It doesn't take much. This is from the SCAL User Manual: 1...

Re: original cameo

If you still have MTC installed, I would love to know if it now does the same thing. The reason I ask is that I was contracted to write a Cameo 4 user manual back in 2020 and I had issues with USB connectivity to the Cameo 4 from Silh Studio. But then I also had and still have connectivity issues wi...

Re: Really want the feature

SCAL6 does not move shapes to another page when nesting. That's something you would need to do manually, at this time. You can now select by color or, if you have the Pro version of SCAL, you can Cut by color but only based on the current page. Note there's a Wish List section at this forum so you m...

Re: 3 Feature Requests

1. I just tested this in SCAL6 and my reg mark settings stay Universal from project to project. The only thing that will change if is I have them based on Print boundaries and SCAL will look up your Default printer settings and make adjustments based on that. So, if you're printing A3 all the time, ...

Re: 3 Feature Requests

Back to Show Page Color, now I'm thinking it just stays on regardless of the workspace you have selected. I know that's how Show Print Margins and How Reg Marks behave.

Re: 3 Feature Requests

Regarding your wish list, I just did some testing and it appears that when you save a document, the Page color currently assigned is also saved. Also, if you always want Show Page Color enabled, then check it and then go to Window>Workspace>Save Workspace. Give it a new name and then always make sur...

Re: Advance after plot

As expected, you need the pro version of SCAL in order to have that option. (Note: You can upgrade to the Pro version for the difference in price.) There are other functions that come with it. I created this document to make it clearer what each function provides: https://www.iloveknk.com/wp-content...
