Using Drawing Functions to Fill
Patterns/Make Outlines Thicker
• Depending on the material and pen being used,
material drawn with a filled pattern may be
difficult to peel off or may tear. Perform trial
drawing with the pattern to be used in your
project.
• To fill in the pattern, select the [Fill the area in
the outline with the drawing function] check box
in the [Properties] dialog box in
ScanNCutCanvas, and then send the pattern to
the machine.
• An open pattern cannot be filled.
Example:
• The fill settings will be applied to all patterns in
the pattern preview window.
• Fill and outline settings cannot both be
specified for the same pattern.
