overlapping traced images = double cuts
Posted: Tue Jan 18, 2022 5:38 pm
Hi,
Beginner here...
When I trace an image into multiple color separations, SCALP creates lots of layers that overlap and often they share the same outline edges. When I go to cut, the paths where the layers share border edges get cut over and over again and it's slicing through the backing paper of my vinyl.
Is there a simple automated way to weld any shared/overlapping paths on layers so that each shared path would only get cut once? I've tried playing with "merge" and "weld" but couldn't get them to do what I needed
Thanks
