🟦Canvas zones

A canvas zone can be seen in the canvas view as a pink outline rectangle. It is used to select a rectangular area within the canvas and send its content to one or more lasers.

You can click and drag the zones around with the mouse. Drag the corners to change the size and shape.

Add a new canvas zone

Click the Add a new canvas zone button in the tool bar.

Assign the canvas zone to a laser

Right-click on the zone and toggle the number buttons to select which laser(s) this canvas zone is assigned to.

WARNING - if the laser is armed you could suddenly start projecting content in a default canvas zone. It's best to disarm the laser before assigning canvas zones to it.

If you now go to the OUTPUT view for that laser you'll see the canvas zone in there, which can now be edited exacltly like any beam zone. See Zones.

You can also add a canvas zone to a laser directly from the OUTPUT view - click the Add existing canvas zone button in the left hand toolbar.

Right-click menu

Right click on the zone and you'll see options to delete this canvas zone, move it to the back and lock it.
