Hi John i am having great difficulty cutting a birthday fox design that i downloaded and printed on dark transfer paper. I scanned it on the scan n cut, i just wanted it to cut the outline of the fox so i could put it on a shirt. The machine cut the whole thing up all the dots on the balloons,the clothes on the fox,all the letters UGH!!!! I have wasted so many sheet of paper . What am i doing wrong?
I have a set of nutcracker png files that I want to use on some Christmas boxes. They need an offset on them but I can't do that with png files in Canvas Workspace. So, I'm wondering what type of image do I need in order to add an offset?
You won't be able to add a coloured offset in Canvas Workspace regardless of the image type as it is not image editing software. You'd need do that in some other image editing software before bringing the design in for tracing.
Thanks, John. I do have the Cricut Design Space where I should be able to do that, but they did an update last Friday that has a bug in it, that says a file is printed when it isn't. Spent an hour on the phone with support and the end result was that they would need to report. So, waiting for an update to the update. 🤣 In the meantime, I can't move forwards with this project. Very frustrating. LOL
@@diannebarton3293I am not sure that it would work in Cricut Design Space either but my experience of that software is limited. Good luck with your creative adventure!
i have a question, can i trace just transparent background in png file? it looks like it tracks black lines of my sticker instead of white border between transparent background and my sticker
This might be possible. If you choose colour tracing mode, it will apply a cutting line around any detected area of colour. You can then remove any of the shapes you don't want from the result.

Is the outline of the fox a solid continuous line? If not, the machine won't see it as such.
John, is there any type of image for Print to Cut that can be edited? Such as adding an offset and/or changing the colour of the offset?
I'm not sure I follow the question.

@@scanncuttutorials i was trying it several times but sadly it doesnt seems like it sees white colour.
@@scanncuttutorials software sees transparents background as white background
Could you weld the results to form one shape? @@mahiro58
@@mahiro58 I am sorry to hear that. I hope you manage to find a solution.
