Overcut problem in Jan 22, 2015 release of Silhouette Studio v.3

Just a quick note:  there was a version release on January 22, 2015.  It created a really bad bug that made a very deep diagonal cut when the blade returned to the origin.  However, later in the day, Silhouette released another update that fixed that problem.  If you do not have v.3.3.451, please update to that version to fix this bug. 


If you still have a problem, please check to be sure you do not have overcut selected.  Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced. and scroll down to the bottom.  UNCHECK the 'Software Overcut' option, if it is selected.  Then click "Apply".  That should fix your problem (see image at the right).


Btw, , I NEVER download a new version until at least a week or two later, just for these very reasons.  I let other people be "beta testers" before I deal with a new version.  And then I research to be sure the bugs did get fixed... After Silhouette first released v.3 with all of its inherent issues, I quickly grew tired of being their free beta tester...  jmho.
