Craft Edge

I would love to see a cropping tool. so many times I have wished for one, or is there one and I just have not found it yet?

Depending on the file, you can use Path/Intersection in much the same way that you would use a crop tool. Draw your box or other shape over the artwork and use Path/Intersection in SCAL 2.010 or newer. This will only work on single items, not artwork with grouped or welded pieces. HTH

If SCAL had the function to delete nodes, that would also do the job.

Another day and another new thing learned. Thanks Heather

Thank You Heather I just now seen this.
I think scal does delete nodes.

Please tell me how to delete them. I have not been able to do it. I guess I want the fast way which is select a node and hit an icon to delete it.

I don't explain things very well, But here is the tutorial on deleting nodes in SCAL

Just click on the node and use the backspace feature on your computer.. I explained in another post

Glad I posted here. Couldn't believe deleting nodes was so easy. After I read this I decided to check in Funtime (use for Gazelle cutter) and found out all I have to do is hit Delete...couldn't believe it. I have been thru hell and high water to delete nodes and all I had to do was hit the delete button...duhhhhh
