I've been trying to learn how to work both the SNAP commands and also those for DISTRIBUTE. I suspect there is use for me there, but don't seem to find them intuitive, nor is the manual helpful there. ANyone use these that can tutor me briefly? Thanks

I never see any chat about the estimating program resident in Flexi. Does anyone ever use it? Has there been discussion about it that I've missed? Is there any training for using it? How would you compare it with other estimating programs, like EstiMate?

When I have a large piece of sandblast resist to cut, sometimes I send it to the cutter in panels so that long passes of heavy material are not making long passes. What I'd like to do is to be able to select columns as well as the panels and have the end results be ready to weed and apply with...

when you hit the icon to outline, somewhere there appears a node that can be grabbed and dragged to the desired outline width. How do you determine where this happens? I feel at the mercy of the program.

I usually change the white to a light grey so I can see it.

I don't know of anything that will open a Corel file but Corel.

I don't know about "die cutting" which I thought was accomplished with a die that was stamped on a material creating the cut??? The Graphtecs that we have do not cut into a strip, but over a groove in the strip, as does the pounce tool. What is the difference between what you're doing and...

Thanks for the clarity, guys. Fred once mentioned Font Expert and not wanting to pester him with my needs and querries, I got it and it never helped. Now I see that I got the wrong one!

I usually save my file as a Flexi file. Then I open it in another window and draw a box around it leaving a comfortable margin, and click on the X on the end of the color chart to make it clear. Then I select all and convert it to paths, and reduce it proportionally to around five inches tall...

Mike, I don't have a digital printer to set up for a profile. I want to print on transparency film from an HP Deskjet. I's still not dialing this one in yet.

Mike, Could you please slow it down a bit more for me. Is this the Advanced button in Fill/Stroke Editor? I don't see anything there for Line Frequency. When I go to Color Spec's, I don't see anything there about line frequency either. I appreciate the help.

What about when you want the shade tones to be in a dot pattern? Is there a way to adjust the size and density of the dots?

Apart from the pricing issue, I think I'd put a piece of paper or tracing paper over it and with a dark felt pen I'd re draw it and scan it and vectorize it and do whatever clean up is needed. I would not work straight from the poor jpeg.

Sorry folks, but I screwed up my question and might have wasted everyones time. In Flexi, I go to OPEN, right click on a file and then select MOVE TO. This is where I want to establish my choice of drive and folder to open to.

When I'm cleaning house I often go to open a file and right click it. This then provides the option of "Send file to" and I can place it into my customers folder. Question is, how do I get it to default to a specified folder? Sometimes it works and other times I'm baffled. I'd like it to have...

I have the latest version with the most current updates and am having a problem with retaining some preferences. (7.6.2 SP2, build 0854) Whenever I open a file and draw a rectangle, the rectangle defaults to rounded corners and has a stroke applied. I try resetting these and exiting the program...

I spoke with Tim at JSI and asked him what advantages ther are to the new v.8 over the 7.6.2 for us non printers. He said "none" and the price is $800.

For those of us that don't do the large format printing, and ust do designing and vinyl cutting, what features are in the version 8 that are not in my 7.6.2 pro version that would make the upgrade worthwhile?

Please advise me as to why you want to run both versions? What does the older version do that the new one doesn't? I'm rather new to Flexi after being a CasMate fiend for many moons.

After all these years, and knowing a fair piece about type, it boggles me how much time I can spend searching through all I have trying to identify a font. After several unproductive hours of searching, is when I asked you guys, so I tried paying my dues before seeking help. Thanks a bunch. Is...
