Hi Lorrie, I have an Explore Air2 that I just bought and I am not a beginner so most of the things you were showing were not new to me. I was watching your video so I could see where things were located in the Design program. However, I also noticed that the version that you are using in this video is a Beta 2 version. My version of Design Space is 5.12.84 The commands you were presenting using the Beta 2 version are completely different from version 5.12.84. When I tried doing some of the things you were showing I could not find them where you indicated. I also noticed that the Beta 2 version did not have a ribbon menu bar as the version 5.12.84 does. Maybe it might be a good idea to try using the newest upgrade. That may help some of the newer Design users to be able to follow you and not be confused--I know I was especially when you were showing where an item could be changed from CUT to PRINT etc. I hope my comments will help in future videos.

The tutorial seems to be easy to follow - however I still am having issues. I have and Explore Air, bought it in fall 2016. I have tried to go step by step - but the design of your screen layout is different - and when I try to separate my design - first with the outline - I can get that, but how do I save it to my desktop as you have? It does not save there or even anywhere in the design space projects. I am stumped and I usually can figure out computer stuff - but this one has me baffled.

The way to do that would be to import and clean up each "layer" of the png separately, then bring them all into the mat at once. For Instance, If you were doing a png of a pumkin... you would import it as a basic image and delete everything but the stem and save that, then do it again and delete everything but the orange part of the pumpkin, and save that, then put both on your mat.

+Lorrie Nunemaker Would it be easier to ungroup the image in another program and then save the layers? For instance with the pumpkin example: 1) Ungroup the pumpkin in an application like PowerPoint. 2) Copy and create as many slides as you want layers. We will keep it simple for this example and say we want a stem, shadow, outline, and orange pumpkin, so that would be 4 slides. 3) on each slide delete the pieces you don't want and save the file, e.g. Pumpkin shadow, pumpkin stem, etc. 4) Then bring in each image onto the mat?The reason I ask is I tried to clean up an image I brought into Design Space and it was not fun. It would be easier to work in a better graphic manipulation tool like Coral Draw, Illustrator, or even something as simple as PowerPoint to ungroup Microsoft clipart.
