Design Scaling - If you resize the dimensions of the material with this option selected, it will proportionally scale all of the vectors & toolpaths.Uses one of those positions as a reference point. Use Offset - Lets you set a origin point other than a corner or the center.For irregularly shaped objects, the center may be best as the object may not line up to an edge very easily. This will determine where For rectangular objects, the lower right corner is often easiest to work with as it will let you reach the material while using the computer. XY Datum Position - Which corner or the center should be used as the origin (x=0 and y=0).For almost all projects, the top (material surface) is preferable. Z Zero - Whether the top or bottom of the material should be considered the zero-value for the material.This does not have any impact on the ShopBot software, which works in inches. Units - You can work in inches or millimeters.If the material is not level, use the thickest part. Thickness - The thickness of the material.Not to be confused with the thickness of the material. Height - The length of the material along the y-axis.

Width - The width of the material relative to how it will be placed in the machine.

Please note that this guide is being updated, but sections may currently be out of date. The tool library has been modified to automatically name the router bits.view controls are now a separate horizontal menu). Some icons and options have been relabeled.

Bitmaps can now be edited directly in VCarve.

The software now offers better support for working with 3D models and layers.

There are additional toolpaths, including one for engraving photographs.

Pocket cuts are no longer limited to using two different bits - as many can be used as needed.

See the " VCarve Pro Trial" page of this guide for more information.

VCarve can now be installed on home computers without needing to purchase a license.

While most of the functionality and layout of the software has remained the same, there are several important differences. In April of 2021, PPLD upgraded the VCarve Pro software from version 8.5 to 11.0.
