Before I update Digitalwoodshop, were you able to keep your patterns as your own in designer? I just want to make sure I dont lose the permission to change my own patterns once the change is made.

It thinks harder! ;-) A carving I set as Best went from 7 hr 40min to 10HR 30MIN!

Wow Bobi,
that one big mother of a carving at 10 hrs I hope you are using rock hard maple :)

you can still use 1.126 if needed.

Did you have a problem installing the new update? When I tried it was looking for a network and couldn't fine the .msi file. I searched my harddrive for the file and didn't find it. As a result, the update failed. What did you do to intall the update?

[Jeff_Birt]

The magic wand' icon looks like a wand. It is in the selection toolbar (you may have to enable that toolbar.) The colorization dialog is under 'View'.

Anyone know this yet?

Should be the same as 1.126 and I am able edit my old inported images with 1.13 as before with 1.126.

regarding the install, I used the full install with out any issues...

good luck

Same here, received the same error but was able to get it to work with the full download.

When someone gets a chance to compare the draft/normal/best from 1.126 to 1.13 to check the quality. It seems that the 1.126 best = 1.13 normal at least estimated time-wise.

130 seems easier to work. haven't carved it yet. Have access to all my 126 patterns, MPC and Ptn. Love the new uses in designer.


PS been play'n w/ this while the Europe markets was open. Man this designer ROCKS. I have been touching up some my old files, what a difference. SWEET

[badger]

Got it to work, but noticing alot of:

gui.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.



Usually happens when Im trying to save a pattern or export one. It does the step but then I get the above error.

Happening all the time now.

Quick try of the Mac version shows the problem with the help in 126 where all the icons were grey squares appears to be fixed. Yay!

[liquidguitars]

you guys try the new one pass 1/8 cutting yet :)

Look at what I miss if I don't logon to the forum for a few days.
I did not know there was a new release (1.130).
I am currently running 1.126.
Is there a quick procedure to update to the new revision?
I have time over the next few days as I'm waiting for a new power supply to replace the dead one.

ver. 1.126

I noticed one new thing in 1.130. If the pattern selection window is open on the right of the screen, it closes anytime you click on the toolbar. Now, I'm not saying that 1.26 did not do this, but I never noticed in on the last version.

It would be nice to be able to pin that fellow in place.

The pattern window does seem to open faster now.
