Thanks for coming to class today at silhouette school.
Cameo 3 cutting above mat.
I was soooo frustrated today kept cutting into my mat it cut the top off several of the images i was cutting.
Question cameo 3 is cutting outside of the mat so the mat is obviously 12 x 12.
I cut a few pieces successfully but now every single image file cuts the top of the mat.
I will put a sheet of vinyl but it always cuts above and to the left of the grid.
I have made sure the autoblade is properly loaded the bar is locked in place the mat is lined up properly on the left.
If you re silhouette cameo is cutting above the gridded area of the cutting mat you can fix it by using the up and down arrows on the silhouette to scroll through until load cutting mat is displayed on the screen.
Have had my cameo since thanksgiving haven t taken the time to play with it much.
This is a new machine and i am new to this entire process.
In most cases there are two quick fixes that will fix the issue and get you cutting successfully in a hurry.

Cutting top of mat silhouette cameo 3.
One of the most common issues from silhouette cameo beginners is that their cameo 3 autoblade is cutting through the vinyl or other material and the backing.
You ll see the main screen which is covered with a 12 12 cutting area the same as the provided cutting mat.
I ve been trying to cut svg files the last few days couldn t get them to save in the proper place or unzip.
The same goes for the portrait 2 autoblade.
Click and drag with your mouse in the cutting area to draw a circle.
