Is there any ETA as to when we can use Mac ios Catalina, I have other programs that need it to run. Soon has long passed.
I have a similar issue, I am running Mac os 10.14.6 Mojave. Most of my design is with vectors, it is almost impossible to insert a vertex where I want it. The cursor turns in a black and white...

I have just upgraded to new version 1.188 for my new Mac, instead of a pointer I have a spinning black and white ball, it's not the ball that Mac has. Software operates ok but a pointer would be more...

I have had the same problem, where the brush cap melted. Destroyed the cap getting it out, managed to save the motor housing. Does anyone know where I can get a new brush cap?

I loaded windows to see if designer would behave differently, if it is the partition, I can format it out. Windows doesn't play well with apple mouse, the MAC was designed to run each OS with out...
Windows is loaded on a partition on the Mac, I prefer to use the Mac to design, is there any way to make it work?
Recently I purchased DXF software and have used it, but every time I go out of designer it doesn't save it and I have to go thru the manage license process to reinstall it. Now it says I have the...

The way I use for filling centerline text is, painting 2 coats of shellac sanding sealer, fill in text with water color, slop it on, when dry, rub with denatured alcohol, no sanding. Works on painted...
