Can anyone help me?? I have drawn two squares. one is 20mm sq and the other is 15mm sq.
I placed one square inside the boundery of the other and selected NO FILL..Yet when I import the image into my Laser Engraving program, the empty space between the borders of the two squares is FILLED...
I am trying to do this Job for somebody, but I have no idea how to stop this happening...PLEASE HELP if you can...
Thanks to anyone who knows how to stop the FILL happening ?????
You say you import it into your engraving program. What format is it you export from DRAW ?
I am saving it as a DXF File then importing it into my Laser Program..
This is the first time I have had this problem and I have created some very detailed designs and successfully Laser Cut and Engraved them.
The Laser Program is PHCad which I think isn't the best around and it has very limited editing tools, so I can't even change things there.
I am grateful for any help I can get right now.
Hi,
Like Anand said, you are probably exporting to a format that doesn't support transparency.
Try exporting to either of the formats shown below that support transparency...

Thanks for your advice Pratik.. I will certainly give those suffixes a try and see if that cures the problem.
It is very strange, because I have never hit this snag before. I have actually run out of ideas now, so help is very welcome..
