No, haven't solved it yet. In general, it seems when I copy>paste an item it gets the imaginary white box under it. Attached "arrow" in original form. I am using a Mac. White bounding box is there when I move arrow object over other items. I can not click on anything but the arrow (which s...

Thanks I think I tried that before, and just tried it now. Also changed the biggest rectangle to a different color. I did the Path>Object to path method. It still opens just the letters in the cutter software. Iwill try the sign cut forum and browse there. When I do Object>Stroke to Path for the red...

Odd issue here. I draw a square in Inkscape, save it and the square will not open in Signcut. Any file with a square tends to not open either, just the non square items.

(the blue is the arrow, the white is the spaces between) I will try to attach a pic of it. I still ne...

Hi, I am new to forum. This is simple question I couldn't find. I made an arrow with rectangle and a square using the toolbar. I want to duplicate the arrows and stack close together to save vinyl when cutting, but when I move arrows close together the rectangle box (dotted lines defining the object...
