Silhouette Studio Ver. 3 update: Stamp of Approval!

Just a quick note that I now feel the Silhouette Studio program is stable enough to approve downloading and using it.  Test cut works again, many print and cuts work again.  It still doesn't do auto registration with their canvas, but with the reinstatement of manual registration, it now at least works that way.  The file uploading and saving issues have been resolved.  Many of the "disappearing" cursors and indicators have also seemed to be fixed. 

There will undoubtedly be more updates, but the current version is usable enough, and not frustrating enough, that it is worthwhile to start playing with it, if you haven't already. 

Some of the new features I *LOVE* are:  ability to cut by line color; creating polygons (any number of sides!); creating perfect arcs; and, the overcut feature.  If you haven't played with any of these yet, do so!  They are fun, practical, and oh so useful!  After my next class, I will discuss some projects using these new features!

Enjoy it!
