great video. You didnt fly through it like a lot of people do cuz they already know how to use what they are showing you. For teaching videos the speed of your voice is perfect. You made it seem easy. At least easier than I initially thought. Hope you make more for the cameo. Thanks for take the time to share.
Glad to hear! I’m happy to help! Let me know if you have any questions.
Where have you been all of my life? You made this so easy to do for a newbie, thanks!
You’re welcome!! Glad to hear it helped. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you so much, you did so awesome explaining how to do this for someone new!
Glad I could help! Let me know if you have any questions!
Thank you so much I finally found a video I could understand you made this very simple to do.
You’re welcome! I’m glad it helped!!
Thank you!!! Yours is the easiest looking one I’ve found.
You’re welcome!!
I’m definitely learning a lot from your videos thanks a lot for taking the time out. Something I still get confused with Doing is like the knock out images I think that’s what it’s called 🤔
I have a video coming out for knockout designs soon.
Thanks for watching. I appreciate it.
Simple, but right to the point.... Thank you, I actually learned something!!!!!❤
Glad it was helpful!
How did you get all the yellow, pink and blue to come off in one group? How do I get to group by color is I guess my question. Thank you
Thanks for the video. Exactly what I needed without a bunch of extraneous stuff.
You’re welcome!!
thanks for this quick simple description helped a lot
You’re welcome!!
Always learning watching your videos, thanks.
you're welcome!
How did you separated the colors like able to take it out the picture and separate them like that. The way you clicked and moved it around.. i believe thats offset but its not working out for me. Can you create a video explaining that. Other that once i learn that i can come back to this step. 🙌🏽♥️
Great video thank you. Just so I understand let’s say I check the pink I put pink on my mat and that’s all it will cut than do the same for all colors?
Also you need to get rid of the red cut lines first?
Just confused with the line color can you just make the line color clear and than cut by fill color?
Yes. What ever is checked it will cut.
You do not get rid of the cut lines. That’s what the machine reads.
Thank you for the help
You’re welcome!
This is a great video. I'm very new to Silhouette, in fact I'm just trying to learn all I can while mine is being shipped. This may be a stupid question, but could you possibly cut all of them at the same time on the same mat if you used 4 pieces of scrap vinyl in different colors on different sections on the mat? Obviously the pieces would have to fit on the 12 x 12 space. Would the software care that they were different pieces of vinyl in different colors?
You can do exactly that! Place the different colors of vinyl in different places on the mat and then cut. Just make sure your artwork is exactly where the vinyl is on the mat.
Great question!
Thank you for this video
You’re welcome
Thank you!
You're welcome!
I like this picture. so you provide it
Thanks!
Thanks for you help im new on cameo 4 pro
You’re welcome!
Can you show how you would put the layers together once you cut them?
Here is basically how it works to apply multi colors to a shirt.
ruclips.net/video/PXEZZ6vz3Q8/видео.html
Hi! Can I know how you manage with these small pieces of unicorn after cutting to put it on t-shirt?
Very carefully. Also helps to have a photo reference available when applying it to keep track of what goes where.
I missed it , how did you pull apart the image into layers?
This image was already broken into layers.
But if you look in my video for the “trace by color” video. It shows how to do it.
What kind of format does the picture have to be to able to separate it. I have some picture that won't separated that i got from the internet
It needs to be an SVG file.
Does it have to be a dxf file to be able to take the colors apart?
No. It just needs to be a vector file.
Hi I am trying to cute a king play card but it has black red and white what color of vinyl do I use and how do about getting. All the colors printed
You we need black. Red. And white vinyl.
Then cut each color separately.
Then apply each color.
Is there a way to separate out colors on an image that is a PNG file?
yes, you would just need to trace by color.
@@AnteUpGraphics how do you trace by color?
ruclips.net/video/wNd4_8tIXo0/видео.html
im new to the cameo world and Ive stumbled across your vids. So my question is - I would cut each color separately and then layer on the shirt? And the transfer paper regulates whether or not i have to flip it or not
Yes. Cut each one separately. Transfer paper is a different process.
Can you make a video showing the clored vinyl in cut modelo and how you would apply
Yes
I'm still so confused! Did you trace this 1st? Do you ungroup it? I'm so lost!
It is ungrouped. I didn’t trace it. It was already a vector image.
You're all over the place
Ok. Thanks.
After this is done how do you put the pieces together?
You would then apply each color one by one.
is this basic studio or designer?
Yes.
Do you have any tips on how to cut for double sided for a flag? Mirrored image on one side and how to do the other side ? Thanks for your tutorials!
What type of flag? and what type of vinyl are you trying to put on it?
Ante Up Graphic Supply I’m experimenting with flag fabric to make flags for off roading vehicles. I’ve embroidered on some and also pressed b flex HTV and easisubli HTV. Turned out good but I dont know if it’s possible to mirror that image on both sides of the flag?
You would really want to sublimate flags. I wouldn’t recommend vinyl.
Ante Up Graphic Supply oh ok.....thanks for the tip!
Thank you for sharing I have learn more tricks. Can you tell me how to keep the same colors together? Whenever I created a file they tend to separate even though they are the same color. Thanks for your help.
You can group them all together.
Click each color while holding the shift key. Then when they are all selected. You can right click and hit group.
Susdsi
Do I have to use registration marks?
You would only use registration marks when you are doing print and cut.
If you are just cutting vinyl, then you don’t need registration marks.
If you are filling in with different colors what color vinyl are you cutting it on?
Each color is cut separately.
So if I’m cutting the purple pieces, I load purple vinyl into the machine.
Then I choose the next color, say pink.
I then load pink into the machine and cut it.
I would do this for all the colors til I’m done
I guess this is not available on the basic 4.1 edition ? great vid by the way .
It should be available. Are you not seeing the option?
I’m trying to figure out how you just pulled the design apart like that. What did you do first?
This is an svg. So it’s already in pieces.
If it all cuts separately without registration marks, how do you make sure if places down so it lines up right? X
You press each piece separately. So you have to line each one up while pressing.
I'd like to see how you line them up after the cut 😢😢😢
Ok. Here is a video on how to press multiple colors.
How to press 7 Layers of Heat transfer vinyl to a shirt.

how did you select to separate by colors ?
In the send screen above the “tool” you select fill.
I have that and my image is not giving me a option to select by color and it’s a pdf file
Pdf files are not vector images. So you wouldn’t be able to select different colors.
You would need to convert it to an svg
So you still load vinyl separately? 4 times for 4 colors basically🤔
Yes. You have to load the vinyl separately.
Hello. What software edition are you using? Also, how do you make your screen dark instead of the usual gray color? Thank you
In this video I was using the basic edition
Here is a link to how to change the screen dark. ruclips.net/video/-rbQWXYKGtI/видео.html
How do you have all the colors to be separate , it doesn’t just pull apart the colors for me
What file type do you have? If it’s a jpg file it would need to be converted.
Converted into what and how would I do it ? Thanks for the help
Converted into a cut file. You would need to trace it. Check out this video ruclips.net/video/wNd4_8tIXo0/видео.html
I could follow but you did not say how to separate the colors. I am new to this and I need to start from the beginning.
This image the colors are already separated. If you want to learn how to take an image that isn’t cut ready and separate the colors and make it cut ready. Then watch this video: How to Trace and separate a jpeg image in the Silhouette studio software.
How to Trace and separate a jpeg image in the Silhouette studio software.
I don’t know why but it won’t post the direct link.
How do you get more colours! I have upgraded my software but I only have a few select colours
In the color panel on the right. You can create your own colors
What silouhette design edition do we need to do this?what do we need to do to get a holographic effect on the whole sticker? Do i need to get holographic purple and holographic black etc and then put it all together?
You can do this in the basic edition.
The look of the sticker you are trying to make depends on the material you are cutting.
So yes. You need to cut the purple holographic then the black and then put it together.
@@AnteUpGraphics thank you for answering appreciate it!
Hey how to you get the colors to separate like that together/
First you have to make sure your image is an svg/vector image.
Then you can grab all the same color with the select by color tool at the top of the screen( it looks like a paint pallet)
@@AnteUpGraphics oh ok soyou can take apart colors like that being png?
The silhouette software will convert a png to an svg when you bring it into the software. Just make sure your software is up to date.
You made it more complicated!
How?
Bruh I’m trying to do a layer on silhouette 4 and I’m lost
What material are you cutting?
so i guess this doesn’t work if you’re creating designs in illustrator? i have a 2 color text logo but it doesn’t separate the black and white.
You need to save the illustrator file as a svg. You should then be able to separate it.
Ante Up Graphic Supply any tips on how to get the cutter to not leave in some of the white around the edges of the trace?
@@dnaastyy print with the bleed on.
OK DID I MISS HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO UNGROUP THE DESIGN TO PULL IT APART BY COLOR?
Highlight the whole design. Right click it. Click Ungroup.
This only works if the image is a svg or any vector image.
@@AnteUpGraphics ok thank u for some reason everytime I try 2 merge a svg in2 silhouette it says it can't be done so I have to use a png.
@@sayitwithatshirt when you go to upload an svg into silhouette it won’t let you? What is the exact error?
@@sayitwithatshirt do you have the silhouette basic edition?
@@AnteUpGraphics yes i think so
How do you get each color of the image to be a different layer?
I don’t mess with layers to much. I just separate the colors and cut them.
@@AnteUpGraphics how do you separate the colours firstly???
Trace the image and create the vector image. ruclips.net/video/wNd4_8tIXo0/видео.html
Anyone have/had issues with vinyl cuts ?..just got mine yesterday and my cameo 4 will not read the registration marks from my pictures on pc...
BUT! It works with the mobile app no problem...thing is that the mobile app doesnt allow you to do very much...especially layers which is a big deal for me..
So if you print it from the pc it won’t read? But if you print it from the mobile app it will read it?
@@AnteUpGraphics thanks for the reply !
Yes my cameo keeps says "registration failed"..even though the registration marks are very clear and visible on my pc ..
The test cut will cut fine but the actual piece i want to cut it will just start looking for the marks ...it wont find it and itll stop..
Not sure if its the latest software update that has issues or if im just not doin it correct...although ive gone step by step from vids on utube and still nothing..
Both prints look the same?
@@AnteUpGraphics yes even a simple square, circle wont cut out cus of the marks..
Do you have cut lines on your image?
I didnt understand one bit im more confused than i was before lol
What are you confused about?
Same
What are you confused about?
Same
Nobody explains what kind of vinyl, how to.layer vinyl...donu have to cut then just hope u can line them up correctly?? Nobody on any of these video explains it all...for someone new and not familiar w computers...not so "self explanitory"
What I meant to say is can I get it from you?
I purchased it on Etsy. So I cannot share it.
Hi, newbie here. How did you separate the unicorn hairs by group?
You select each one and then group them. That will keep them together.
I’m so confused.
What are you confused about?
