How do I edit individual sheets in a multi-sheet job, and duplicate a sheet complete with its contents? (12.5)

The Edit Sheet form

Select one or more sheets on the Sheet Management Tab and choose edit to open the Edit Sheet form. It comes in Single Sided, Double Sided, and Rotary variants to match the job, and carries the same core fields as Job Setup, applied per sheet:

  • Job Size: Width (X), Height (Y), Thickness (Z), with unit selection.
  • Z-Zero Position: material surface or machine bed.
  • XY Datum Position: corner or center (red square marker in the 2D view), plus Use Offset for a custom datum.
  • Design Scaling: a checkbox controlling whether existing drawings resize proportionally when the dimensions change.
  • Modeling Resolution and Appearance (Material Settings for the 3D shading).

Editing sheets individually is how you handle a job that mixes different offcuts or board thicknesses in one file.

Duplicate Sheet with contents (new in 12.5)

12.5 adds Duplicate Sheet: one menu command creates an identical copy of a sheet complete with its vectors, models, and toolpaths. Use it to spin off variations of a finished layout without rebuilding anything.

Working across sheets

The Toolpath Tree supports the per-sheet model: a Sheets Filter dropdown shows one sheet or All Sheets (inactive sheets faded), and right-click Copy to / Move to commands transfer toolpaths between sheets. Activate a sheet from the Sheet Management Tab, the dropdown, or by double-clicking the sheet outline in the 2D view.
