Paste bitmaps from the clipboard Any bitmap images in VCarve Pro’s supported formats can now be pasted directly from the Windows clipboard into an open model inside VCarve Pro. These changes while quite subtle significantly improve the dynamic layout and editing of vectors within VCarve Pro. As previously, you can tailor what is included by the snapping tool using Edit->Snap Options or by pressing the keyboard shortcut F4. There are specific new points of interest for snapping, such as intersections and text letter outlines, but also the snapping is now available in all drawing tools – including shape transformation and scaling. New Snapping Options While drawing shapes and manipulating the layout of your designs you will notice the automatic snapping assistance has been greatly enhanced.

This makes the process of refining outlines and adding detail artwork much faster. However, by simply clicking and dragging any of these points, the line span will automatically divide into two new spans. These are called Virtual Midpoints and initially they do not affect the line in any way. Virtual mid points for line spans When in Node Editing mode, all line spans now show a small grey handle at their midpoint. In addition there are a number of new additions to the 2D View to simplify and assist common drawing operations. New Drawing Tools This latest version of VCarve Pro introduces several entirely new drawing tools and features, which are fully documented in this section. Vectors - EPS/AI/PDF CAD Drawings - DXF/DWG Vectors - CRV Bitmap - BMP, TIFF, JPG, PNG, GIF Toolpaths - V3D This will cause the file to be imported and, if appropriate, positioned at the drop position. The selected vectors from a job can now be exported in Scalable Vector Graphics format (*.svg) using the File->Export->Export Selected Vectors to SVG menu command Drag & Drag into the 2D View Many file types can now be dragged directly into VCarve Pro’s 2D View from Windows Explorer. To do this you would need to export the file in a vector format that supported layers (example: DXF). Note: Importing files in this way will not retain layer information from the original file.

Selecting VCarve Pro (*.crv) files through the File->Import->Import Vectors menu command will selectively import the vectors only from these documents. VCarve Pro files can now be imported into an existing VCarve Pro drawing. New 2D Vector Formats DXF and DWG file import has been updated to support AutoCAD’s 2013 file format. Finally, the Miscellaneous Improvements section documents the remaining minor changes that have been made, usually in response to specific customer feedback, to improve work flow and fix problems that have come to light since the previous release.įile Importing & Exporting The latest version of VCarve Pro includes many new importing and exporting options for working with 2D vector geometry, bitmaps and files from other Vectric Products as well as enhancements to the choices available for 3D model formats. There is also an additional section on File Importing & Exporting, which details the considerable improvements to the range of file types supported, and the new streamlined workflow for importing them. In each Section there are separate parts highlighting completely new tools, and a summary of enhancements and extensions to existing tools that you should already be familiar with. This document is broadly divided into two sections focusing on the main areas of VCarve Pro: Drawing and Toolpaths.
