Vectric is very pleased to announce that VCarve Pro 4.5 has been released.



VCarve Pro 4.5 includes new design and layout tools – Rulers, Guide Lines, Snap Grid and Snapping options – that make drawing and designing much easier and quicker. New 2D toolpath previews - wireframe and solid - instantly show where the cutter will remove material and make it very clear if the tool geometry is too large or the wrong toolpath strategy has been used.
