xTool Creative Space V1.3 Layer Function Tutorial

In today's video, we'll be breaking down how to navigate and utilize the Layer function in XCS to boost your creativity and efficiency.

Here's what you'll learn:
Introduction to the Layer function in XCS.
How to create and manage layers for different parts of your design.
How to handle multi-color drawings bought from an online store using the Layer function.
How to rename, collapse, and delete layers, making your creative process much smoother.
For your hands-on learning, we've included two practical examples:
1️⃣ Create layers for a customized vector drawing, including layer creation, object assignment, and parameter settings.
2️⃣ An example of handling an online purchased vector design, where we'll demonstrate how to use layers to organize and process the design effectively.

Don't forget to share your creations with the xTool community! We are eager to see what amazing projects you come up with using these new features.

Interesting, let me just point out we love when real people explain these functions

XCS is evolving to one of my favorite design software. thanks

[Victoria.Henderson]

Thank you for adding layers. It's definitely helpful.

Finally. I've been waiting for this since D1 day 1.

XCS is still not usable for proper laser tasks, no absolute coordinate feature, no saving own material settings ( not everyone buys the expensive xtool material ), makes it useless for any production really. Layering is finally a good step in the right direction but without mentioned features, still not worth it to use XCS over Lightburn.

Ugh. So I have to reset the parameters every single time I create something even with the same colored layer? Can you please make it so if I select "red" for example, then everything thereafter that I create in red doesn'treset to default but instead takes on my previously created "red" parameter?! If not this makes creating a project tedious as I have to set every parameter for the same color throughout! :(

Is it correct to assume you can change the order of the layers by dragging them? And also I’m assuming they are executed from top to bottom?

[hazardfamilly]

I need to hide option for layer and it will be perfect 🎉

Would have been nice to have a real person doing the commentry and why not use the word 'function' instead of the ghastly 'functionality' !
