Video #8 - Quantity in Design Studio




I made a short video to help explain how to cut multiples of the same image quickly and easily using Design Studio. I have noticed a lot of questions lately related to filling a Design Studio mat with multiples of the same item so I thought I'd share my tips for doing this.

I find that I can usually cut more of the item than I would be able to using the "autofill" key on the Expression since I can manipulate and move the shapes to maximize the use of my paper.

I hope this video is helpful - let me know if you have questions. I will do another video soon to show how I "autofill" my mat with a welded design.
