Girl, I have been using Silhouette Designer Studio for years - and have upgraded to Business Edition, still did not know what the divide tool was all about until TODAY .... I love it and I LOVE your presentation. PLEASE add more videos ... your style is sleek and so easy to understand.
Well, that makes me happy-I'm so glad it helped! If there's something you want to learn, let me know, and I'll see if I can make another video to help. :)
I haven't even watched the whole video yet but had to stop and say thanks for showing the "free" version of how to accomplish cutting an object larger than one's mat. TY!
Such and EXCELLENT tutorial! Thank you so much for explaining everything by not only telling us *what* to do, but also *why* it works, or does not work! I am an inconsistent user of my cutter and software so my knowledge is limited, and even what I have known needs refreshing often! I am so thankful to have found your incredibly helpful videos!
aw, shucks. thank you for the kind words! i try to explain things in a variety of ways, bc we all learn differently. (like you, i also need to know the why.)
Great video. I’ve been looking for a video to learn how to cut a large banner that doesn’t fit in my 8and a half by 11 inches. This video was the only one that explained it so well. Really appreciate it!!! 😃
Aww, shucks, thank you! A friend didn't understand how to cut a large design and asked for my help, so I made this. Do you have a particular problem you'd like to see a video addressing?
I have been trying to figure out how to make/print a dotted border for a round sign & after watching your video, I think I may can do it. I won’t have time until this afternoon to try it, but you’ve given me hope!!
This is the type of detail I’m trying to learn as a new cameo 4 owner, I feel a good highlighted video of this subject while printing and then sticking would go a long ways! 🫡🔥😎 deff subscribing
Thanks for commenting! I'm case you're getting ready to cut a regular decal, like one for your car window or a stainless steel tumbler, I'll tell you this: in my business, I use Oracal 651 vinyl, and I use Duck brand clear "contact" paper for the transfer tape. And I may as well throw in the best cutting advice I have, too: every machine (even every Cameo 4) is different, and every blade (even the same brand and style blade) is different, so every time you use a new blade or a different type of material or even a new mat, the first cut should be a test cut. Make it one with curves and corners (I just use the shadow tool or freehand one) to test my cut settings on an unused portion of the vinyl, for example (I place my test shape in a spot that won't be cut in my design, turn off cut lines to my design, cut the test shape, DO NOT send my mat out of the Cameo. I check to see if the rest shape weeds cleanly and easily, and if it does, I turn off cut lines to the test shape, turn my design's cut lines back on, and cut. (And, of course, if there's a problem with the test cut, I adjust cut settings, make a new test shape, and repeat the process until it's good, then I save the settings with a new name. Something like "Oracal 651" or whatever I'll later remember. Good luck. I hope you'll come back and tell me how it goes!
Thank you SO much for this helpful video. I find it very hard sometimes to follow along with videos when learning something new but this came very easy for me because of your instructions!
For future reference, click cutting mat and choose "none" if you have an extra large item to cut. Also choose "custom" in the media size. This works great if you are cutting longer than 24" and not using a mat. Good luck
I guess im asking randomly but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I was dumb lost the login password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me!
@Stetson Trent Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Aww, shucks. Thank you! Sorry it took me so long to reply-we were on a 3-week cross-country camping trip. I don't have classes... but if there's a certain thing you'd like to know/learn, let me know, and maybe I can put something together for you! :)
Well my silhouette is having issues in print and cut and I had help from Elly group everyone there tried to help but nothing did it. So then I am trying to get help from silhouette , but omg it’s taking for ever to get help. Then they sent me an email lol asking me to do everything I did from the group lol so now am on a waiting game with them. There isn’t a phone number for customer service
Oh how I would wish you could be here to help me out :). Customer service hasn’t gotten back to me. They only had me do some tests to see why, but I am still waiting to hear frontmen it’s been more than 3 days now Thank you
I don't use Silhouette Studio to print, as a general rule (except for the occasional Print & Cut project). This video is showing how to cut a design larger than the cutting mat, so what I don't show is the actual cutting. Once I've got it set up, I click on the "Send" tab, choose (or customize) my cut settings, and click the "Send" button. Is there a specific question I can help with?
I am struggling big time ive seen the video over a 20 times and still cant get my image to divide after creating square around 2nd cutt portion of image outside of border. What am i missing? Compound path image, create square, divide.
So sorry I'm just seeing replies today. I hope you have figured it out, but if you haven't, I'd like to help. Here's a way to do it if your image isn't particularly complex: 1. Place your design on your mat like I've shown in the video, with extra off the right side of the mat. 2. Alt-click on the design to make a copy exactly on top. 3. Draw a rectangle around the cut area. 4. From your Replicate Panel, choose Duplicate Right. (creates another rectangle exactly next to the first) 5. Click on the design, and shift-click (you'll be selecting the top copy) on the left rectangle. 6. From the Modify Panel, choose Subtract. (you'll see several pieces are selected: group them or make them a compound path.) 7. Click on the full design, then shift-click on the right rectangle. 8. From the Modify Panel, choose Subtract. (you'll see several pieces are selected: group them or make them a compound path.) Hope that helps!
@@danielleeasley9907 I'm so sorry for the late reply. I don't look at RUclips very often. You may have already figured it out, but if not, maybe I can help (or maybe someone in the future will have the same problem and see the solution here). The problem may be that you subtracted instead of dividing. Subtract will take away the object that's on top/in front position. Instead, divide will cut the design in two. Please let me know if I can help further.
hmm... not sure what you're asking. you can cut any number of colors, either by separating each color onto its own mat or by choosing to cut by line color or fill color. if you can clarify what you need to know, i can try to help. 😃
Well . . . the size you can print will be limited by your printer. And remember your design area is a bit smaller when using the print and cut registration marks. But if you wanted to print and cut pieces and assemble them afterward, then yes, same process. hth!
i need your help im a big fan of your page and I do a lot of projects for my baseball community team and I'm doing print and cut job. This image is a SVG logo and I have a circuit maker 2 I'm able to make a large cut but everytime I put them together its off the logo is a one piece logo and if I cut the logo it wont look right when I set it on the garment. is their a way I can cut the logo out large on my 12x24 mat without cut the logo into two parts. I apologize in advance if im not making any sense trying to put the words to make sense. i can really use some help on this matter
Hi, Anthony. So sorry I didn't see your comment sooner. I don't have much Cricut experience, so I don't have an answer for you. Maybe there are Cricut equivalents to "divide," etc that will make the difference. So sorry I can't help.
I’m so sorry I didn’t see this comment, Cheraldine. I’m just not getting notifications. Are you still struggling? Is there anything I can help you with?

Do you have classes on using silhouette? Your the only one I can hear and understand how to do things and I am so impressed

😅 great intro love it
lol! I figured I may as well explain right off the bat what weird noises you might be subjected to. 😅
Thank you
I have the business addition can you make a video with that version?
Anyone know how to do this on Easy Cut Studio?
I'm not familiar with Easy Cut Studio, but if you figure it out, please mention how. Thanks!
How do you print it though? Can you show that part?

So confused 😩 I got it to subtract as you stated but where did it go? It left and now I can’t cut it

Not sure what I am doing wrong. This is not working for me.
