I have a fairly complex cutout I need to do through Vcarve on my CNC machine, when I import the file into the program, all the lines change to black and I have to try select them individually to able to assign different cutting instructions to it. I have made every group a different colour in Illustrator but when it imports into Vcarve, it changes it all to black and ungroups it. Is there a way to sort this out?

Well, now that you mention it, yes. Vectric seems to have abandoned their in-house forum, so there's no way to pose questions about how Vcarve Pro works. I've sent several requests over the past few days, but there's been no reply. Maybe they should set up an AI chatbot somewhere.

How do you circular array if the array center is not in the stock center? How do you find a rotation center coordinate if it is notin 0,0?

You can enter the coordinates for you rotation center at any place in your material. A circle within a circle will appear where the center the center of your array will be placed.

Sorry for not getting back sooner. If you have items that are grouped, you need to ungroup them first by pressing the U key (G = group, U = ungroup). If you drag your mouse from right to left, anything that you touch will be selected. If you select too many items, you can unselect the ones you don't want selected by holding down the Shift Key while at the same time clicking those items with your mouse pointer on the items you want to unselect.

Sorry for not getting back sooner. When you purchase VCarve Pro 8 for above, you get 10 sets of clipart with 9 of them being 3D clipart models. After installing VCarve Pro 8 or above (or Aspire), you must run the executable files for each group of clipart. They should then automatically appear in your Clipart tab when you click on Clipart.
