Are you a fan of popout with card stock?

@SilhouetteSecrets Күн бұрын
Personally no. But that is probably because I've been cutting cardstock on a mat since 2005 and just like how it cuts.

First I am appalled that people are yelling at you. You are an Affiliate not an employee. So shame on them. When you download are you renaming and sorting by types backgrounds or subjects birthday, animals etc? At the moment I can see most of my library files. I have been direct downloading in a file labeled sil backup but is in no order just file numbers since I never planned on needing. I just bought a new computer so hopefully my library won’t go away. As far as you know I can add the computer and see my account and look and sort to find files one at a time using the new tip. Thank you for all the info you provide for us♥️

@sandywootten6792 Currently, there are no affiliates. The programs were all removed with the website migration. We were not informed of that change, and we ate told, someday the program will come back... but all that means is that if someone uses one of my links to purchase, I may get a small commission. That's it - that all the program is or was. Someday, I expect the library to sync properly. For right now, I'd recommend renaming the files and sorting in whatever manner works for you, and you'll know where to find things. That can be different for all users. The only way to know of the new computer will sync properly is to try it. I would still keep your other computer working offline, just in case.

Hi, does it work with the cameo 5 ?
@SilhouetteSecrets
@SilhouetteSecrets 2 күн бұрын
@RTCDigitalS yes. If you had an Auto Sheet Feeder before the Cameo 5 was released, you would need a new connector plate from Silhouette and would need to contact Silhouette if in the U.S. and if outside the U.S., contact your retailer where you bought the Sheet Feeder.

Thank you Elly Mae! Your explanation was very heart felt. I'm so sorry that people are so irritated with you. Their ignorance is showing through. I'm a long time Cameo user. I think back to 2014. I really appreciate the fine work that you and the other experts on the Facebook page have been doing. I'm a hobbyist, not someone making money with this machine, but I have backed up my files for years and keep many of them offline. Like you I don't worry about what I have purchased from Silhouette because I can re-download those files if I need to. I hope you take time for yourself and your family because this too shall pass.

I have seen the electrostatic mat for portrait 4 is available for purchase on the silhouette website and I've been eyeing it for at least a month. I am curious why I haven't seen any tutorials or videos or that it is still "coming soon" unless it's related to shipping? However there is options for second day shipping so it doesn't seem that it would be a pre-order purchase. Do you know anything about it? Thanks!

The Electrostatic Bed for the Portrait 4 arrived and was released for sale on May 24, 2024. This is why there is not much out there on it. It is the exact same as the Electrostatic bed for the Cameo 5 model and functions the same as the Curio 2. Those of us who already have information out there on the Cameo 5 using the Electrostatic bed are not going to buy another ES bed just to put out information that is the exact same just with a different machine. While I have a Portrait 4, I don't see the need to spend the money to get an ES bed for it as well as the ones I already own. Here are tips for the ES Bed for all machine models - silhouette-secrets.com/silhouette-electrostatic-es-bed/

Hi EllyMae. My account shows I have been offline since 5/6/24 and that I am signed in. I can pull any design into my design mat whether it is a silhouette studio file or something I myself added to my library. Every design has either a circled green check or a circled green lock.

I bought this machine because I thought it was best. Wrong. Should have went with Cricut. The first 4 times i used it to make stickers, the cuts with my portrait 4 were almost perfect. But after that, I am lucky to get 3 stickers out of a whole sheet that are a decent cut. Almost all the cut lines are way off and it appears to drift down the page. I have changed nothing. I didn’t even move the machine. I didn’t adjust any settings. I’ve double and triple checked everything they tell you to check. This is so frustrating. I guess I’m gonna have to manually adjust the cut lines? This machine has cost me money in sticker paper and time. I’m seriously about to throw it in the trash and buy a Cricut. I don’t even expect it to be perfect, but the cut lines for my stickers are way off and I cannot sell them that way. It seems this is a huge issue for a lot of people. Does silhouette plan on addressing this or fixing this? Is it a software issue?

I've had no issues with print and cut with the Portrait 4. Here is what I'd recommend even if you have tried other things - I'd recommend doing this in this exact order step-by-step and then how are the cuts... 1. Unplug the machine and then carefully move the blade housing all the way to the right and all the way to the left. Do this 3 more times and leave it on the right side. Plug it back in and turn it on. 2. Follow this tutorial and set everything back up at all the defaults for the Portrait 4. silhouette-secrets.com/2020/01/28/lets-explore-v4-print-cut-basics/ 3. Use the Portrait 4 cutting mat that came with the machine. Do not use any other cutting mats. Do not use an old Portrait cutting mat. It is not the same size. I show exactly the difference here silhouette-secrets.com/2023/12/02/silhouette-portrait-4-unboxing-tips-for-success/ 4. Hold the mat completely level as the machine is reading the marks. How does the cut look with the test cut?
