can anybody keep me right with print laminate cut?

[Peter Normington]

Derek the half cut feature is supposed to do it, it does after a fashion, but needs a lot of messing to get it working (well on my mimaki anyway)
there is a demo on the cadlink site under tutorials.

I watched it many times Rod, and set up as instructed, it’s still is not functional on my set up.
for instance, if i want to die cut a few hundred decals, and arrange them into smaller groups of say 25, and repeats so reg mark detection allows accurate cuts.
signlab cuts one group, then asks for a pen change, but then does the next group of contour cut, offset, then prompting for a pen change again.

try as I may, pen change, tool change, pressure change, I cant get it to work.
Ray and Bernhard have both tried to set it up, with only limited results.
it would be good if it worked properly,
I dont think it is me,

any pointers would be appreciated,

Peter
