Pet Ornaments 🐈 🐕

After last week’s Cat Face Ornament, so many people requested a dog version!

We’ve been sketching cartoon dog faces all week but haven’t yet hit a design we love. That’s why we’re throwing y’all a bone until we get that figured out 😅

Also remember Cuttle has a Paw Ornament template which is a classic!

Video Tutorial: Introduction to Components in the Cuttle Editor 📹

Federico’s livestream last week was an introduction to using components in the Cuttle Editor. Components are a powerful feature but can be tricky to wrap your head around!

Here are a few things you can do with components:

  • Quickly create variations on a design.
  • Make reusable shapes, like holes for mounting screws. If you need to adjust the hole, you change the component and it changes everywhere automatically.
  • Make your own custom shapes that aren’t provided in the Cuttle left sidebar.

Video Tutorial: Make Your Own Templates with Multiple Names 📹

In Federico’s livestream yesterday he showed how to design your own templates that feature multiple names.

He creates a component that has a name parameter — for example a name in a heart — then reuses that component throughout a design to place multiple names around a year for an ornament or around a frame for a personalized picture frame.

Federico hosts a live stream on our Facebook Group every Thursday at 1pm PT / 2pm MT / 3pm CT / 4pm ET. See you there!

Other Improvements and Fixes 🐞

  • Mask modifier: Fixed a bug where filled shapes were not inverted when “invertMask” was selected.
  • Round Corners modifier: Fixed a bug where the endpoints of a closed path were merged if they were close together.
  • Fit Within modifier is now out of BETA!
  • UI nicety: we now auto-focus the comment text field when adding a new comment to a component or parameter.
  • Fixed a bug where performance could slow down unnecessarily if an expression used console.
  • Fixed a bug where Repeat modifiers with zero repetitions would appear like they had an error.
  • Removed hidden handles from component thumbnails.
  • Added Font and RichText to the Scripting Reference.
