Bringing your work over, part 2 of 5: An SVG, colors to layers

An SVG file dropped on the window opens at its real size as a new drawing: a coaster with a red outline, a blue line and a black filled star. Each color is a layer, and the filled layer starts in the laser job as a Fill. The blue layer is made a light score and the order put right: engrave, score, cut last.

Bringing your work over: the whole project

Work made elsewhere was brought into the program and made ready to cut. The film shows a laser project file opening with its layers and cut settings in the laser job, an SVG dropped on the window with its colors as layers, Tidy up for cutting mending a drawing with doubled lines and an open corner, Weld making overlapping letters one outline, and Nest the selected shapes packing copies onto a sheet the size of a laser's bed.
