Just to confirm what it says in the "Read This Important information first". If I have 1.187 already installed I must uninstall it before I can install 3.0?

No, you can leave 1.187. You can't run both at the same time, though.

Question, is Designer compatible with Windoes 8?

Thanks for the post. Do you know if the problem with tabs "corrupting" carvings in 2.006 & 2.007 has been corrected in 3.0?

YES!, but you MUST use the Run as Administrator command to both install it and register it, just like with 1.187 or 2.0 on Windows Vista, 7 and 8.

So you can bypass 2.0 altogether?

Yes - going from 1.187 to version 3, no problem.

I'm replying to my own post to let people know what I found out by downloading the trial 3.000. From the display, at least, it looks like the problem with tabs has been corrected. There's no pattern distortion and no "fences" around carved regions. Of course, I couldn't try it on the actual carve without buying the license.

Bottom line: I'm going to upgrade and hope for the best.

Question: I am using 2.007, will I be able to view a MPC or PTN that are designed with 3.0?

MPC will not be backward compatible but patterns should be.
