very simple thx for sharing :) what about the opposite way..lets say you want to cut this but it is negative, the letter A or K would lose their inner shapes... how can you make a little bridge to keep them in place? i cannot figure that out and also don`t know how to call it :D
nevermind, found the answer on the lightburn forum forum.lightburnsoftware.com/t/weld-inside-of-letter-to-itself/35787 anyway concider making more lightburn tutorials :)
@@8Bit_ch - The Lightburn forum is such a great resource. I'm glad you found your answer :) I made a quick video before I saw your second post so I'll link it here incase it is helpful to someone else: th-cam.com/video/ZU0YkX628L0/w-d-xo.html
Hi Gabriela, It's a bit difficult to know for sure without having the file, but the first thing I would try is to make sure it is not grouped. If an object is grouped the weld function cannot be used on it. To ungroup and object just select the object, right click, and then select ungroup. Hopefully that helps :)
In the case of text, you would also want to ensure that it has been changed to a path. (Again, just right click on the object then select convert to path).
Excellent video. Direct and to the point. It earned you a like and new subscriber. Thanks
Thanks Larry!
Just what I was looking for thank you!

The weld button is not available when I select all the letters after connecting them, why is this happening or what can I do? Thank you in advance.

Please help me understand, Why would you do this? It looks ugly that way!
not a bit helpful, I must have missed a step following each step you mention but it doesn't work for me.
