Help Please - PurseBox

Post by wvcathy »

I do not know how to upload a picture - but I downloaded a file yesterday (not sure from where) but it is a little purse - file name is pursebox - it is brown with pink polka dots and when I try to cut it - it cuts right in half -- hope it's OK to upload the file to see if anyone can help me fix the cut on this.

I think I have attached a jpeg file of the purse now


Thanks in advance,

Cathy

Cathy, I'll try and help you.

* what is the software you are trying to cut with: SCAL1, SCAL2, SCAL3 or eCAL?

* do you have the "trial" version or did you purchase and activate it? If you have the trial version it will cut a line across any design until you purchase and activate the software

* try hiding the the "fold" line layer and see if that makes a difference.

I'll be around for a while today.

I have SCAL 2 - if you go into preview you can see a line corner to corner - that shouldn't be there - might be something with inkscape which I do not know anything about - thanks for the help

You might be running the trial version and just need to register your software...activate at the attached link.
I cut the box and it is cute as can be. I was using scal2 and the E.
The box is just big enough to fold some cash and give as a gift :)

I purchased and have been running scal 2 every since it has been out - been cutting other boxes out all morning - so not sure what could be wrong

Cathy, somewhere along the line the fold lines have gotten grouped with the base image when the designer grouped the pieces. I can see it in the Inkscape file. You will need to ungroup and reconnect the pieces either in SCAL if you can. If not there are other svgs for this design somewhere. Maybe GJ can tell you where she got hers.

Good luck

Here's what I see in SCAL when I ungroup, not connected correctly. So it is not YOU!

I don't see the line corner to corner in scal2 using preview. I did not open in INK, but just opened the file in SCAL2.

I opened the svg in Inkscape and it looks as if there unconnected lines/intersections that need connected. Hope this helps in the problem :)
