My #1 most frustrating piece is that there is no ability for vertical text! So much of what I do includes it and is extremely time consuming to create it.

Some platforms are able to make
Photo carvings with v carve.
That would be an awesome addition for pro
EDIT FROM ROB: That would be a “Project toolpath onto 3D surface” option

Add option to use Vcarve after a 3D toolpath/carve. Example: Carve a 3D flag and then be able to add a Vcarve toolpath to carve the stars following the previous contour of the 3D carve.

I would greatly appreciate a sort of Advanced V Carve with Machine Resting. This would save on a lot of large cuts without manually figuring out where to place extra paths for smaller tools.

This may already exist, but if it did I would’ve thought I’d found it by now. It would be nice to force the tool paths to run in Y-direction sweeps only or X-direction sweeps only, so one can cut with or against the grain of the workpiece as desired. Thanks for all you do!

I would like object groups to stay in/on their layer when combining with other groups rather than them being moved into same layer.
When designing and using layers I will often group “all” in order to make design adjustments. If you group “all” it pulls groups from other layers into one group on one layer.

I would like to see a way to edit the “Design Elements Library” to where a design can be “added”, “removed”, “renamed” and “recategorized”. I know designs are a personal preference topic but many of the default designs take a lot of time to go through to find one that could work for a project.

More in-depth how to videos, more detailed and not rushed

I have been using cc7 and now cc8 is out and after I realized the files are recognized the 3 d programs do not carry over as well . It does not make it too inviting to download the next version knowing I have to go through a ton of programs to re due all the 3 d programs. I use this a lot in the products I sell and I really don’t want to have to do that so I would like to see you all make that area carry over to the next version.

You can add a folder/s to the Carbide Create>library folder to save your images or modified library images as long as they are an SVG. I generally draw or modify an image and export the svg straight to a folder named My drawings.

Within the Design tab, show the Layer Name of selected vectors.
When the selected vectors have more than one name, indicate “Multiple.”

Export DXF files and more reliable DXF importing
I get files from all sorts of people and most send as dxf and 50% of the time I get fragmented vectors when imported into CC. If I open with another program, the dxf file looks fine. It may have to do with layer height differences in their sketches, but it is strange 2 of my other programs can figure it out and CC is unable.

Pause for user interaction 
Basically official support to pause a program at specific points so I can “do some stuff” before resuming. This would facilitate manual indexing as well as a number of artistic methods like layering with resins or doing inlays.
Take a layer off, pause, let me check it, resume, take another layer off, pause, looks good, I stop the program.
I assume this would need to be implemented in create, maybe as a dedicated feature in the tool path section. Insert a pause between other tool paths
