About a week ago I started having issues with CD X8. When I would start the program (same way I have done forever), it loads then a vba message appears. Disable vba, except vba, info.
I have tried disabling, excepting many times and still get the same gray screen appearing.
I is a gray screen with Visual Basics for Applications across the top. If I click anywhere on the screen corel locks up and I have to use the task manager to close. I have had many issues with CD 8 but this is the latest and I can't seem to find any information on how to fix or work around.
I really have to watch how I work in Corel now as it seems to lock out for no apparent reason.
Help........
Thank you in advance for any information.
select the shape you need reg marks on. I usually draw a rectangle around what I'm setting up to cut. Size it about a 1/2" or more bigger. Run the macro on that rectangle. It creates a "cut" layer and a seperate layer for the the reg marks (required by our plotter). Page size is irrelevant but you could set the macro to read the page size and set the marks accordingly. Really your preference.
Great, that looks like it should work. I'll play around today and see if I can create a macro to do this.
Thank you so much.
this, by the way, can be done without macro, manually. Draw rectangle on the border and curve it. Add one node and break it. Draw two more rectangles a little wider and higher than the original. Then just do two operations "Back minus Front" with each rectangle.
Thank you both for all the help.
I have done similar to what Shark posted and also just manually created corners similar in size to what
I have printed in the past. I put in a separate layer and printed off. Loaded in my cutter and opened the cutting master 4 plugin. It did not recognize the registration marks. I will play around some more and try and figure what I need to name the layer as so the plugin recognizes it for the cutter. Graphtec ce5000-120.
Thanks again for all the help.
I use an import command to bring in premaide reg marks named top left, top right ,etc
macro then does a find and align to shape/shapes selected. Uses a series of SendKeys. Not the ideal way but it works until I can figure out a more streamlined approach. Don't like relying on a seperate file to import either but...
