Ability to Flip entire Design Either Horizontally or Vertically

[JAcieG (Joseph Gillam)]

Having the ability to flip your design would speed up the possibility or engraving something on the “front” of a part and then flipping it and cutting out the part from the other side.

[Long_HiFi (Larry Long)]

I was wondering if this will be possible. I guess if you designed it in 360 or the like. You could flip the model and make it 2 Jobs.

Best,

Larry

Yes, I just do it in Inkscape or some other tool and import. An example of doing this with the Probe:

A simple technique for two-sided work

Basically one sets up the job with the origin at the center and cuts the left side as the one which has the less positionally sensitive elements cut, along with a mirrored inset for the Probe. Then after flipping, one cuts the right side which is registered on the Probe cutout using the Probe and has all the features from the other side as well as the outer profile: [image]
