Thread: recurring corel problem

  1. #16
    If you made one circle and then hit ctrl D 20 times, you have 21 circles so of course it will cut 21 times. You can lasso or click-drag to select all your circles (or probably hit ctrl-A to Select All if you have nothing but the circles) and have CD tell you how many it has; if it says 21 then it's working as expected but, if it says 20, then you have a mystery!

    you don't get it.
    I have 21 individual circles and each one the laser cuts each circle 21 times before it moves to the next circle.

    Gary I appreciate the offer but I already deleted all the circles and replaced them with a single hairline replacement.
    Funny thing is I took one circle and hit ctr d 20 times then place those around my text and it worked just fine.
    Its got me baffled. Thats what I've been doing since 7am LOL

    Bert,

    After setting your job in Corel you would normally export as DXF and import into your other software that controls machine.
    What version of DXF you select on export? Try different format and save the file on desktop, close Corel program and reopen it than import the file in to Corel.
    Do you now have 20 circles or is there multiple stocked up. I'm trying to isolate if your other program on import multiplies those circles since no one else has this issue with Corel.
