    Type3

    When I create typeart object and click on the "section icon" it shows the engraving ABOVE the material (z+) rather than IN the material. Then when I create a toolpath and try to machine it I get an error that Z+ is over limit. What is wrong? Any help appreciated.

    Hi andus!Just move a litle bit the object and press F2 at the same time.Then check an origin in the new window (I usually make it at the low left corner) and set the x,y,and z distances-if z is not set properly (like zero) then you have problems.
    I hope this helps!
