Hi,
I am also trying to engrave the item # (parts file name) into my pieces in Q-CAD/CAM. This would be a layered item.
Can you do that with this software? What would you all suggest?
Would appreciate any kind of input on this matter!
Thanks,
AdvancedIronboi

Hi,
I've a hard time to understand what you mean with with the term "layered item". EVERY entities in a CAD program like QCAD/CAM is associated to a specific layer. There is no such thing like the item is layered or not layered ...

Hi Husky,
Thanks for the response! I understand every item is layered. My question is, could I prompt the software to automatically insert a text associated with the file name for the part? I already know I can manually enter text data
I would appreciate any kind of input!
Thanks
