This is the mode recommended when you need to cut shapes in a very specific location relative to the
onscreen
Cutting Mat
or when you are utilizing multiple tools in applications such as draw and cut or
emboss and cut.

Shapes are cut based on where they are located on the virtual
Cutting Mat
. There are two methods used:
Cutting Mat Method
: The virtual
Cutting Mat
dimensions should match those of the grid on the actual
cutting mat. The origin is set in the exact lower right corner of the mat’s grid. The material needs to be
placed on the cutting mat so that it covers the area where the shapes will be cut.
Material Method:
The virtual
Cutting Mat
dimensions should match those of the material being placed
on the actual cutting mat. The origin is set in the lower right corner of the material regardless of where
the material is placed on the mat. In the example later on,
the material is assumed to be letter size (8.5”
x 11”).
•
In the following diagrams the purple and green arrows are used to indicate the equivalent distances
between the shapes and the origin on the virtual
Cutting Mat
and on the actual mat.
