@@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy , I am new, and this is probably a simple calibration mistake, but my CO2 laser seems to only make good prints at about 4 or 5 cm from the nozzle. More or less than that seems to spread the lines. What am I missing?

I haven't opened Lightburn for a couple of days, the wife was in the hospital. So this was an eye-opener as soon as your video started I download the new version so I could follow along. I'm really glad you're on top of things for us. 😁 Thanks for the video!

[@TheGuitarman1968]

Thanks for the tutorial, Rich. I had asked you about this exact update issue under a different video, yesterday. I am glad you made a whole tutorial about this update issue. I was "temporarily" getting around the issue this morning by duplicating text and creating two separate layers. One layer for "fill" and the other layer for "line." Then just overlaying the line layer over the fill layer. This "work-around" requires a few extra steps, but it worked great. However, I like being able to create multiple steps in one layer now after the update. Way cool! 👍

First, thank you for always keeping us updated Rich! But if I now interpret correctly, then I can all my previously created with the old version and saved files, revise again, since the previously used "options" are partially no longer exist? What will be a blessing for some with the update, is for others probably rather a curse. I will probably rather make no update and continue to work with the old version.

No, only the Line + Fill layers need editing on older files. Everything else is the same.

@@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy Thank you Rich. Then I will do the update, because with line and fill I don't have too many files.

[@andrecanis4894]

From the documentation: "Loading designs that use the Fill+Line mode will automatically convert them to a pair of sub-layers, with a Fill followed by a Line pass" So you should be able to just open up your previously edited files and they will work with the new settings.

Or just delete and the download again? Or do I have something selected somewhere I need to uncheck?

@Marie Wood. Lightburn is $60 for a lifetime user license key that never expires. However, you have to pay $30 a year if you want to continue to get software updates and support. The user license allows you to use Lightburn on 2 separate computers simultaneously. However, Lightburn has been known to let you use it on 3 computers if you ask nicely. I hope this helps answer your question.🙂

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

$60 for Gcode for Diode & $120 for DSP for Co2 Marie. $30 annual renewal if you want updates. If you already have the Gcode version, it's only $60 to upgrade to the DSP. lightburnsoftware.com/collections/frontpage

I’m really starting to watch your videos. Lightburn intimidated me for awhile, then I said I’ve got to get into it. I’m used to operating industrial cnc machines but never design software. Watching your video this morning also, I was able to make a multi layer design. All thanks to you Rich. Keep up the great videos

@@steveferguson1232 Thank you Steve!

meh... I have to disagree. The additional tabs in the cut settings editor may be more powerful, but this isn't EASIER for people who just want/need Line and Fill. Now, instead of simply changing one drop down, we have to go in and manually create a Line and a Fill setting. That is literally more steps which equals not easier :)

[@TheLouisianaHobbyGuy]

Yes, it is, but the purpose isn't to replace line + fill. I have a lot of projects that are 3, 4, or 5 different layers, and this is what it's really for.

Do yoy have a simple video that just shows how to cut something out. Just a basic cut proceedure. I don't see a way to cut anything, the machine just engraves. ???
