    To delete the unneeded points, just click the simplify option once you have all the points showing.

    Two ways to delete extra points quickly; 1, to select multiple points, hold shift and hold left mouse button to draw a box around multiple points. Then delete.
    2; select one point, you don't need to right click and hit delete. Just hit the delete key on your keyboard. And it will go to the next. You can keep hitting delete to delete multiple points in a row.

      Thanks for the very informative information. I looking to buy one. 19 years ago I brought the Cricut machine, I made one thing and boxed it up never used it again. I finally gave it to my granddaughter a year ago. Hopefully she will have more fun with it. The Cameo seems easier to use.

      What does simplify do on a multipoint object? In some other software I use, that will remove un-needed points

    One way to remove the excess nodes is to 'make compound path' on the same editing screen as the nodes. A png image has pixels which are creating the jagged edges.

I haven't used it as yet as I have not set up my area for it to be placed and also the idea of using it is a little daunting, as I am not tech savvy. I am doing my research first and came across this video, very good explanation of the process, thank you.

    receiving the heat transfer vinyl gloss side out protect the vinyl from damage, its irritating that it curves the other way, but i would rather that than damaged corners pulling up or scratches/slices in the vinyl itself. I apologise if you werent looking for an explanation as to why they do it

    When selecting the points hold shift when selecting them to that way you delete them all at once but before you click your first point hold shift and don’t let it go until you select your last point you want to erase, also while having those points selected you should be able to “select similar” not too familiar with the program yet. But we learn as we go and we learn from each other

    Not sure if you figured this out but you can get rid of the dots and make them smooth by selecting the image and clicking "detach lines". It's on the right side in the same menu where "subtract all", "divide", "weld", etc.. is. It will make your edges smooth.

    Thank you so much for giving me a little confidence to get my brand new Cameo 4 out and give it another go 😜. I had wanted one for over two years and went on amazon so, so many times to purchase it and just always chickened out thinking it would just be a waste of money. Then to my surprise my mother n father had known how bad and for how long I’ve wanted one so they completely surprised me for my Birthday back in November 2019 yes November and I have yet to cut anything out. All I’m mostly wanting to make are just text quotes and one word such as Farmhouse etc to cut on vinyl to transfer onto wood, then maybe learn to do the same to cut on heat transfers to make shirts. I know this Cameo can do and cut so many things but yet I can’t seem to feel confident enough to figure grouping words for a sign or just one word lol... Hopefully, I can do it this weekend for sure thanks to you. Fingers crossed and new subbie here 🙋🏻‍♀️

    That's funny you just said about the cameo 4 and the way the vinyl is rolled because it gets hung up on the opening lip and cause a jam. I know 🤣 pissed me off twice. I just did exactly what you did before I saw this video. I also put the image about 2.5 inches further down with no mat because everytime it moves back up to the top, the vinyl has a chance of jamming on that lip. I may just make something. It also wants to get caught on the back part also. They should roll it the other way when packaging.

    I love your videos, how you show the exact settings on the software.
