Hi!
Is there a quick tutorial anywhere that explains how to start the laser at a certain point (how to set the center of where your design should be?). I remember doing it in class when we first started but I haven't had a need to do it until now!

Thank you!
Trevor

Trevor,
You probably want to use the alignment tools to be sure about the alignment of your design. Alignment tools are the four-way arrow in the left toolbar. Use existing artwork or copy a relevant outline from layer 2 to align to. Select the "anchor" (i.e. the object to remain stationary) first, then select additional objects. Click the appropriate alignment tool ('vertical alignment', 'horizontal alignment', or 'centre objects').
