sorry, I didn’t get a notification. I possibly turned them off.

first two files are examples of files showing job control as images

This file cuts as a vector, but all files are vectors?

Any ideas? The settings I used are all the same but different results.

Are you going from Illustrator? Inkscape?

I had this issue before and found that Corel was most reliable.

Hey, what’s with the Inkscape hate?

It’s the only software that’s manifested this particular issue for me.

I heard it was responsible for most if not all of todays fundamental problems.

I was going to ask if it was Inkscape when Chanelle first posted but I know she usually used Illustrator, which is why I didn’t say before.

This doesn’t happen with other software.

It actually happened with all 3 software’s. Job control wasn’t responding to all 3 at one point. At another point job control viewing icons disappeared, before becoming totally unresponsive.

Several reboots and copy and pasting the file into a new page seemed to solve the problem via inkscape, with the options to rebuild all viewing icons in job control returning.

Thanks anyway.

It’s called prejudice

There is another type called illustrator hater! :wink:

We have a license for illustrator. It’s just not practical for most of us to use!

I don’t mind using Inkscape, I just prefer Illustrator, this isn’t hate for Inkscape, but a reality that Inkscape causes most of our laser cutter issues like that described above.
