There are dark solid grid lines (green on the plastic mat, blue on the SCAL mat), and the mat edge is obvious...but what are the light blue dotted line on the SCAL "mat"?

Thanks!

In SCAL, nothing will cut beyond those lines, so make sure all your artwork is inside those dotted blue lines.

Thanks. I've been using SCAL for years and have avoided outside the dots but didn't know for sure. Wonder why it's designed like that.

All of the programs for the Cricut are like that, cutting directly from the carts too.

Also, if you have an Open path your file can't touch the lines or it won't cut correctly.
