SCAL5 won't cut round shapes properly

Post by shelbyhopper »

Hey all!

I'm running SCAL5 on a Cricut Expression. I've used it numerous times, but suddenly my round shapes are coming out angular instead of round.

The photo is supposed to be a normal heart shape. I've tried using the icons from the SCAL library, and importing SVG's, but nothing is changing.

I'm not sure if its an SCAL setting or a Cricut setting, but as far as I know, I didn't change any settings before this started happening.

Any idea what's going on??

I don't support Cricuts (never used them) so your best bet is to go to the following group that supports the use of SCAL5 with legacy Cricut cutters.

That's weird. ScrappyDew has some tutorials that may help you. I have had no troubles using SCAL5 on my legacy cricut or cameo4
