Custom Mats in v.3

Post by cbauer50 »

Hi - I am trying to do a custom mat in v.3 I can click on Custom in the Mat Size drop down menu and change the W & H. But how do I save it and name it to something besides Custom?

When I open SCAL up again, it's not there.

Isn't there some way to name it and save it so that mat size is there all the time?

I tried to Search for an answer, but couldn't find anything.

Thanks.

I don't have SCAL in front of me (but eCAL)...they are very similar.

Are you talking about Mat size or Material size?

If it is material size, then after you make the change, go to the Windows tab and Choose Save Workspace and give it a name. You should be able to chose it next time.

I am talking about Mat size. I know I can save the Workspace, but I am trying to figure out how to save the Custom Mat size so it is a choice all the time.

The only choices are 12" x 12", 12" x 24", 8.5 x 11" and Custom. If I choose custom, I would think you should be able to name it and save it so it is a choice the next time you open it. I know it can be done in other programs and I'm sure you can do it here, too, but I can't figure it out.
