Okay Steve. Thanks...LOL. Another bag of worms for me to figure out. Thanks for the link but I must learn to use it too. This is dangerous based on my previous history.
Okay, ran Designer for hours yesterday without any crashes. Today, it gets a GUI crash if there is any attempt to extract a pattern. Honesty, this is really flaky software. Cleaning up the Pattern...
Actually, this makes a lot of sense. In programming, it is what we use to call a "heap leak". Memory and space is never unallocated. It is a sign of poor software programming. I know that Designer...
I discovered that I forgot to move the Favorites so went back and did that. Now I am waiting to see if it crashes again.
I deleted a bunch of patterns that I had added. It seemed to behave better but then crashed again. I was moving a pattern using Snap, this time.

Where does that Favorites file hide, again? My memory sucks sometimes.
Steve, where is that Favorites folder hiding. I keep forgetting but can it be edited with Explorer? A while back I had a problem with multiple Favorites showing up in the Pattern selection box, which...
Ummm, maybe 2007? Duh, me, Steve. Thanks for catching it.:):rolleyes:
I just was reading something you posted a couple of years ago about the Favorites files. I makes me wonder. I am often creating and importing new patterns. Is there some sort of limit on the...
What software is this? Is there a program that will allow easy editing of the Pattern libraries? I do not play with this stuff enough to remember it from time to time that I figured it out in the...
Nope, that is off and has been. Thanks for the idea, which I went and checked on then. Any other ideas for me to try?
I have been searching in the Forums off and on for the last few weeks too....
From day one, when I first got my machine in 2007? there have been GUI crashes. It has been on at least 6 or 7 different PCs over the years. Sometimes it is rare while designing, other times, like...
I was hoping to discover why the blackened areas were needed. This explains why they are needed. Thank you. :)
I cannot say for absolutely certain what is happening when this occurs, as it is intermittent and I do not discover the error until the carving is finished. I can say that I have found nothing...
I had this happen on a 11.5 x 33" board while doing a carving with centerline text in the pocket, centered on the board, always under the rollers. Last line is wavy. My guess is something to do with...
Bought it earler today and will build it this week....I hope.
Steve,
I discovered (rediscovered?) how to find True Type Fonts on my PC, doing a search for the *.TTF files. I am struggling with which fonts to use, especially when they are one that I have not...
Thanks Dick. This is pretty much what I had evisioned making and your details have encouraged me. I probably have everything needed to quickly make one too.
Last night I discovered the Universal...
I have had this happen, multiple times since I got my CW in 2007. It did it again just last week. I am not sure what is causing it either. After destroying the lumber blank, then replacing it,...
Do you sell these already made?
Dick, I made a simple sled a couple of years ago to carve on acrylic, but have yet to really make a sled. I agree that I should do so and have had the plans and notes about making them for years now....
I wonder if this was caused by coming out from under the roller? It would only take a tiny change to create the lighter carving. It would not be as noticeable in the V bit text carvings, but in an...
Dick, I just took a picture of the carving I did yesterday, and a screen shot of the Designer depiction of what it should look like. It is using the 1/16 ball nose bit, which Designer allows to be...
No, not that I know of; I have hundreds of pictures taken over the last 10 years so something might show up. I usually only take pictures of completed projects and the failed ones head to the...
