This was really helpful! Thank you for this. I have some laser cutter experience, but was lost with the cutter as I didn't have one until now. Also, that 'refresh' button where it shows where the M1 is connected, I did not know that it refreshed the view of the cutting area! I can't wait to start making things with this machine! (I also subscribed :) )

So cool!!

[@PrintableCuttableCreatables]

It's quite the versatile little machine :)

My creative space doesnt have the refresh button for the camera. Do you know why that is and how I fix it?

You should see the option as soon as you connect your machine. Double check that you have the right machine selected - Not all XTool machines have the camera built-in. If you have the correct machine with a camera selected and still aren't seeing refresh, perhaps try restarting the program?
