    Possibly the best instructional video on UA-cam! Brilliant, in focus, great audio and clear & concise. Thank you for your great efforts - truly appreciate what you are doing.
    I have a couple questions regarding the software:
    1: In the GROUP/UNGROUP are of your demonstration of the software you have 3 button but on mine there are only 2! What is the 3rd button's function and how did you get it?
    2: Down the left side in the drawing menu there is a 'CURVE' button. How do you use this function?
    Hope you can help.
    Another question from the different versions of what appear to be the same software but with different names: RDWorks, RDCam, MetalWorks and LaserCut - is there any differences between these programs that we should be aware of?
    Thank you in advance and I am so pleased that I found your videos.

    • @MWLaser
      @MWLaser  3 роки тому

      1. the three buttons are Auto Group , Group and Ungroup
      2. Curve function - draw your curve and then you can use the 2nd button down the node moving tool to adjust your curve
      3. Different software for various RD controllers. RD works is for most machines, unless you have metal cutting or camera on your laser
      further support / training (fee) is provided by email matt@mwlaser.com.au
      Cheers

    Hi there Mathew and everyone. My problem is this. You download a file but then it cut out the wrong side of the stencil. It will give you the outline when you finish. Instead of the outline the part being available to paint. How do you change the file that the white becomes the part to be cut out . TIA

    Hi Matthew… thanks a lot for explaining it in detail. Could you please advise if there is any option to import data from excel sheet and print directly. We use it for labels printing and unfortunately till now my staff has been typing each time in the software to fill in the data individually.. so thought if it could be from excel or Autocad file we could save a lot of time … thanks in advance for your support

    hi Matthew, hope you are doing great. Just so you know, your video helps me a lot, thank you so much.
    Just wanted to ask, how set the "repeat num" setting so that it will cut the whole artwork first, then repeat it for the second or third time?
    example, i wanted to cut A B C shape, how to set it, to cut all the A B C first, then repeat it again from A to B to C (2nd and 3rd time) ?
    because now, "repeat num" it will cut A(1st,2nd & 3rd times) then B(1st,2nd & 3rd times) then C(1st, 2nd & 3rd times)
    Can you help? thanks a lot.

    How can I turn on/off measure tape that goes by upper side and left side of the program?
    If I want to draw a circle of some dimensions I simply type in dimenisions of circle and it draws it. But what if I want to draw something from zero, some shape with holes, how can I position those holes accurate?
    If you know, it would help me a lot!

    • @MWLaser
      @MWLaser  3 роки тому +1

      Draw a circle "hole" the size you want it position it at zero - then select the circle and click the "matrix copy" tool, then enter the number of hole you want and the spacing you want between them.
      You cannot turn off the rulers (coordinate) bars.

    • @tomislav8724
      @tomislav8724 3 роки тому

      I know how to draw a circle and I know how to use matrix copy tool. I saw your tutorials.
      Example. I know how to fit circle inside rectangle. I can position it in middle by horizontal/vertical line, I can put that circle at top/bottom or right/left side of rectangle.
      But what if I need that circle at some specific dimensions inside rectangle, if you understand me?
      Example: I need to put circle diameter 5mm inside rectangle 30x30mm. It needs to be in upper left corner. Measured from upper side it needs to be 12mm apart and from left side 7mm apart. How can I put that circle by these dimensions?

    • @MWLaser
      @MWLaser  3 роки тому +1

      dragging a guideline is not a feature of the software, however you can measure objects or points using the TOOLS - MEASURE option. Also the coordinates of the part placement are shown on the CUT PROPERTY tool bar and the coordinates of the cursor is displayed at the bottom right of the screen.

    I watched this post with great interest and downloaded the RD Works software. The program seems to be straight forward but I can not find a way to print my test file to an inkjet printer for verification before committing it to a laser cutter. Is there a way of doing this directly out of RD Works? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

    • @MWLaser
      @MWLaser  4 роки тому

      no you cannot print to an ink printer from Rdworks, you can select all and export file into a paint/graphics program if you want to print the layout. But to preview your work before laser cutting, use the Preview button to show a simulation of the laser output.
